Equipment

  • Jigger
  • cocktail shaker
  • Fine mesh strainer

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces apple cider
  • 2 ounces bourbon whiskey
  • 1 ounce fresh lemon juice
  • ½ - 1 ounce maple syrup (to taste)
  • ½ ounce fresh orange juice
  • 1 large egg white (optional, and use fresh, high quality eggs)
  • ice for shaking (AFTER the dry shake!)
  • cinnamon sticks and apple slices for garnish

Instructions

  • In a cocktail shaker with no ice, add lemon juice, orange juice, apple cider, maple syrup, bourbon, and the egg white if using. Dry shake without ice for 30 seconds.
  • Add ice, then shake again for 30 seconds to chill. Double strain into a chilled glass.
  • Garnish with cinnamon sticks and slices of apple. 
  • We don't recommend saving this recipe or making ahead of time, and it is best enjoyed fresh.

Notes

  • Chill your glasses in the freezer to keep your drink cold longer.
  • Make sure to wash eggs to remove any potential bacteria on the shell before separating the egg yolk and white if using. 
  • Egg whites are optional, and can be replaced with 2 tablespoons of aquafaba if desired. 
  • If desired, double-strain the drink into the glass to ensure no bits of egg white bits or ice shards are in the drink.
  • Sweeten to taste with maple syrup. 
  • You can replace the fresh orange juice with lemon juice for a more sour drink.
  • Apple juice can be used in place of apple cider.
  • Feel free to lower the carbs in this drink by using our homemade sugar free apple cider recipe, as well as a sugar free maple syrup replacement that is runny, not thick.
