APPLEBLACK
.
Time for some boozy Fall fun. This is a black Manhattan riff (my fav) that subs apple brandy for whiskey. I used @copperandkings, which has a bit more barrel presence that some apple brandies and so does the job here as the base spirit. I split the base (I canβt help myself) with some quality spiced rum to bring in all those cinnamon/clove notes that apples love. [Spices! Itβs what apples crave!]. For the Amaro I took a lighter touch here with Meletti to highlight some of the candy-like sweetness of apples, and because the Punt E Mes also brings a bit of its own bite.
.
{Tasting notes}: In short: Fall in a glass. Lots of spiced apple with hints of vanilla and ginger. There is a gentle bitter finish that helps it from being overly sweet. Definitely worth a try!
.
<<Recipe>>
1.5oz apple brandy (@copperandkings)
0.5oz spiced rum (@foursquarerumusa)
0.5oz Amaro Meletti (@meletti_official)
0.5oz Punt e Mes(@puntemesarg)
2 dashes ginger bitters (@hellabittersandsoda)
.
\\\\ Stir with ice, strain over #clearice cube (@truecubes), garnish with an apple-y lemon twist. Cheers!!
