Most would pair lemon juice with whiskey but lime sits well with the apple juice in this recipe to produce a very refreshing bourbon aperitivo

This was a easy drinking and very pleasant cocktail. I swapped 1/3 of the JD for JD Honey. I forgot the cinnamon🤦🏼‍♀️. I'd also like to try it with a dusting of cardamom powder.

I made it with maple syrup instead of sugar and added the cinnamon into the shaker with rest of the ingredients.
Wonderful, autumnal drink, reminiscent of an apple-cinnamon cookie.

Agreed. Maple syrup or demerara is the way to go.

I've opted for a bit of ruby port topping the cream, as I've seen in I think several other sours, but I might be mistaken; i.e., I like it, but it is at your own risk to use it instead of the topping of cinnamon powder

Liked this a lot. As I didn’t have saline solution, I used smoked salt which worked wonderfully with the bourbon.

Shaking with the apple cider inside the shaker is not a problem?

It's apple juice, not cider. Not a problem to shake with apple juice.

In my haste to try this drink I forgot to dust with cinnamon. Oh well!
Still tasted absolutely delicious.
