Apple Cart Cocktail
Award-winning mixologist and sommelier Lauren Mote and chef Jonathan Chovancek create seasonal cocktails featuring their handcrafted Bittered Sling Extracts.
When creating the Apple Cart cocktail, Mote selected flavours that pair well with apples, as well as flavours inspired by apples themselves. “This is a bourbon drinker’s Southern-style punch,” she says, and the result is both rich and balanced.
