here's a quick and refreshing cocktail inspired by a drink from jg domestic that i tasted on a recent trip to philly. it went perfectly with the hickory smoked georgia pecans with maple & bacon! we used apple brandy from harvest spirits for this libation - they are located in the hudson valley and apparently give tours and tastings at their distillery. sounds like we need to take a road trip soon!
The Philadelphia
makes 1
1 oz high quality gin
1 oz apple brandy
1 tbs meyer lemon juice
2 tsp maple syrup
3 1/2 oz club soda
1 sprig thyme
1 slice of apple
in a cocktail shaker, combine gin, brandy, lemon juice and maple syrup with ice and shake well. pour into a high ball glass, top with club soda and stir. garnish with thyme and apple. enjoy!
oh yummy i love the ingredients in this.....maple would be great in a cocktail w brandy. delicious. dayle
ReplyDeletemm I hope it warms up so I can give this drink a shake. Those pecans on the other hand...those sound good anytime!
ReplyDeletedrink sounds delicious. but in this case, i'm most interested in the glass in the picture - who produces that beauty?
