SDN – EVERYTHING APPLEY !

sdn-1


This weeks TDN was moved to saturday, so SDN…which had apple as theme. The apple things i had available was Apfelkorn, cider, applejuice and apples. As i`m still into vanilla i added that to my rum based drinks,so they are all both apple (and vanilla) themed. I`m not sure when this vanilla break is going to be.

The chatroom was full and there were as usual many nice drinks made, a roundup is posted at Kaiserpenguin and Mixoloseum.

Shake all ingredients except the Sprite, strain and pour in to a cocktail glass with crushed ice. Top with Sprite and garnish with a speared lime wedge and stemmed cherry.

I tried this one also with aged cachaca and then tequila reposado and found the cachaca version especially tasty.


TROPICAL MORNING

When its still dark and the fresh dew is on the grass.

2 oz white rum
1 oz apfelkorn
1 barspoon applejuice concentrate
1 thin slice fresh ginger
juice from i lime cut in wedges
Schweppes lemon
1 vanilla bean.

Pour rum, apfelkorn and concentrated applejuice  in a chilled fancy glass. Cut the lime in wedges and squeeze some of the juice into the drink. Drop the wedges into the glass.Add a slice of fresh ginger and ice. Stir well.

Throw in a vanilla bean and purpleish persian basil for garnish.
The addition of a fresh slice of ginger which slowly releases its flavor to be noticed a bit later, is refreshing.
