This cocktail uses a punchy aquavit scented with caraway, aniseed and fennel and sparkling wine - you can use gin, if you prefer
Ingredients
- 50ml Swedish aquavit (I used O.P. Anderson), or use gin
- squeeze of lemon juice
- 4 tbsp cloudy apple juice
- 2 pinches of ground cinnamon
- handful ice cubes
- 200ml bottle sparkling wine
- ½ small apple , cored and thinly sliced
Method
- STEP 1
Pour the aquavit or gin into a cocktail shaker or large jam jar. Add a good squeeze of lemon juice, the apple juice, a generous pinch of cinnamon and a handful of ice cubes, pop on the lid and shake well.
- STEP 2
Strain into 2 fluted glasses and top up with sparkling wine. Sprinkle the apple slices with the remaining cinnamon and thread onto 2 cocktail sticks. Balance a cocktail stick across the rim of each glass and serve straight away.
