13. Apple-Pie Cocktail
My interpretation:
1.5 oz Bacardí 8
1.5 oz Casa Mariol Vermut Negro
4 dashes (one barspoon) Hiram Walker Apricot Brandy
2 dashes Rose’s Grenadine
2 barspoons lime (not pictured)
Shake well (on broken ice), strain, serve. It doesn’t taste like apple-pie (you can find lots of recipes that do that these days), and I’m not sure if it was meant to, but the specific brand of apricot liqueur might have something to do with it. A nice Abrikos would improve it, as would a better (i.e., not a last-minute purchase) grenadine, like Liber & Co.—which I used up at a party making Applejack Specials—or Jack Rudy.
