Walnut Jack
Carl Amoth's Bar
Makes 2 cocktails
Apple brandy and nocino read like pie in a glass—maple and lemon keep it from going sweet.
Ingredients
- 4 oz apple brandy (Laird's Tenth Generation)
- 1 oz nocino (Nux Alpina)
- 1 ½ oz fresh lemon juice
- ½ oz cinnamon demerara syrup
- 2 large egg whites
Method
- Dry shake about 15 seconds.
- Add ice and shake about 20 seconds; double strain into coupes.
- Grate fresh nutmeg over the top.
Note. Sub 1 oz homemade grenadine for the maple to lean closer to a true Jack Rose. Skip the egg whites for a leaner drink.
