The Old Fashioned is a versatile cocktail that prominently features the whiskey complemented by fresh ingredients that highlight the season. This variation speaks to the flavors of the fall: cinnamon, brown sugar, black walnuts, and Granny Smith apples, all coming together for a crisp, refreshing cocktail to be enjoyed at the bar, by a fire, or at the tailgate. Mix one up with this recipe from Tribeca Tavern.
2 ounces Elijah Craig Bourbon
1 turbinado sugar cube
2 dashes black walnut bitters
3 Granny Smith apple slices
1 dash cinnamon
Muddle sugar cube and bitters. Add Elijah Craig Bourbon, stir, and strain over a large ice cube. Garnish with apples slices and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
