Also read about this first in the Imbibe Nov. ‘08 issue. I love this drink ‘cause it appeals to the pallet in that flavorful way lost in so many of our modern cocktails. Strong, spicy, herbal flavors served ice cold yet seasonally appropriate nonetheless. This is a great drink to mix at the bar when the real drinkers are present. No need for disguising or hiding flavors with this one — just Applejack, Rye and a few friends working together in a positively gangbusters drink.

Here we go –

• 1 oz Applejack
• 1 oz Rye
• ½ Maraschino Liqueur
• ½ oz Green Chartreuse
• Couple dashes of Orange Bitters

Mix with ice ‘til frosty cold, strain up in a cocktail glass and garnish with an orange twist.
