It’s March, so all month long our cocktails will feature Irish whiskey… because St. Patrick’s Day! Our first feature was created by Joaquín Simó of Pouring Ribbons.
“Knappogue Castle 12 Year is redolent with notes of honey, baked orchard fruits and gentle spices, so this sessionable sipper doubles down on those flavors while adding bright citrus and fizzy ginger to keep things light and refreshing,” says Simó.
Enough said.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz Knappogue Castle 12 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey
- 3/4 oz unfiltered apple cider
- 3/4 oz lemon juice
- 1/2 oz wildflower honey syrup (2 parts honey : 1 part water)
- 1/4 oz Benedictine
- 1 oz ginger beer
Instructions:
Add ginger beer to bottom of rocks glass. Shake and strain remaining ingredients. Rocks glass, cylinder of ice and garnish with fanned apple slices
