Ep. 120: A Speakeasy Classic Returns - The Applejack Rabbit

Join Jules and Uncle Brad as they shake up the Applejack Rabbit, a Prohibition-era classic born in the speakeasies of 1920s New York. Uncle Brad takes you back to 1928 when humorist "Judge Jr." first published this recipe in his cheeky cocktail guide Here's How!, then traces the drink's journey from Northeast speakeasies to the pages of The Savoy Cocktail Book—and its modern revival thanks to craft cocktail pioneers like Jim Meehan. You'll learn how to build the perfect version at home, and Jules adds her signature agave spin. Plus, if you picked up All Spice Dram for last week's episode, we've got another delicious use for it. Cheers to American ingenuity and rediscovering old favorites.   Applejack Rabbit  Glass: Coupe  Garnish: Lemon twist  Directions & Ingredients  In shaker add  2.0 oz Laird’s bonded apple jack  0.75 oz Fresh orange juice  0.75 oz Fresh lemon juice  0.5 oz Maple Syrup   Shake for 20 seconds  Double Strain into your chilled coupe  Add lemon twist garnish    Agavejack Rabbit  Glass: Coupe  Garnish: Lemon twist  Directions & Ingredients  In shaker add  2.0 oz Fall Apple Infused Tequila.
