Review

This apple delight combines apple brandy, Bison Grass vodka, cider (ideally Devonshire English cider) with a smoky whiff of Islay whisky.

A great use for leftover cider. Careful with the Islay as it can overwhelm the apples if, say, you misread the measure - it's half a spoon, not half a shot.

Thanks for bringing to my attention Tom. The half spoon measure was before the days of our Easy Jigger. I have now amended the recipe to say 2.5ml / 1/12oz so clearer.
