Jack Rose. Yum.

The Jack Rose is my all-time favorite cocktail. It is tangy, not too sweet, and secretly strong. You absolutely must ask for this next time you are out! It is made from applejack. Applejack is produced from apples (duh), which is made by concentrating hard cider (YUM). It was especially popular in the 20s and 30s, so it is an older, classic cocktail -- plus, it's pink!

How to make a Jack Rose

Ingredients
3 parts Applejack
2 parts lemon or lime juice (I prefer lemon!)
2 parts grenadine

Shake & serve straight up in a chilled cocktail glass.
Garnish with a lemon, lime, or apple!

Simple & Delicious.
