Spiced Apple Old Fashioned

Spiced Apple Old Fashioned

Wheyward Wheyskey and a homemade spiced apple syrup combine for a cozy autumn-inspired riff on a classic Old Fashioned. In 30 minutes or less you’ll have a bottle of delicious apple syrup and a Wheyskey cocktail ready to warm you up from the inside out.

2 oz Wheyward Wheyskey

½ oz Spiced Apple Syrup*

½ oz Apple Cider

2 dashes Angostura bitters

‍

Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass, add large ice cube, and stir to chill. Strain into rocks glass with a fresh cube. Garnish with a cinnamon stick and thin apple slice.

‍

*Spiced Apple Syrup

1 large red apple

½ cup sugar

1 cup water

1 cinnamon stick

3 cloves

‍

Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan over low medium heat. Let simmer for 15 minutes, do not let boil. Occasionally stir gently. Remove from heat and let cool. Strain syrup through a fine mesh strainer into an airtight jar or bottle. Store in refrigerator. 

Don’t let the apples go to waste! Use remaining soft apple pieces on top of oatmeal or yogurt for a sweet apple treat, or blend them up to make a homemade apple sauce to use in your favorite recipes.
