Notes

Variations
  • Serve it warm. Apple flavor makes for a great fall cocktail. And with fall comes chilly weather. Warm up the apple juice before serving.
  • Make an Apple Jack. Use Jack Daniels to make this an apple jack.
  • Use different whiskey. As mentioned above, there are many types of whiskeys. Try out Bourbon, Fireball or Jameson.
