Good explanation and logical. I’m just being nationalistic around our flag. We love our US neighbours and their fine bourbon, especially 46!
How can this drink celebrate the Canadian flag with American bourbon? Especially when Canadian Rye makes for a superior cocktail?

Very nice drink on this Sunday afternoon on the anniversary of Sputnik launch. Thanks.
Delicious. I found the Rose Water readily at a local Persian grocery. Giffards for the syrup. Wonder how long I can keep it in the fridge?
A delicious, well balanced drink for autumn. I substituted Calvados for the Applejack and served it on the actual Harvest Moon, October 1, 2020.
