Reviews
Yet another winner from Valerie’s cocktail repertoire! I have just tried but as no sparkling apple cider, mixed with apple cider and topped with splash of club soda. Honestly, good without club soda. Easy to fix to taste. Keep them coming for Fall celebrations!
Good, reliable, fail proof cocktail recipes are hard to find, in my opinion. This one is a winner for me and I have been making it for almost two years. I don’t like it too sweet and I find this perfect sweetness for me, even when you have several. One thing I do differently… instead of honey, I use agave nectar from Costco. Love this recipe.
I love bourbon cocktails and this does not disappoint. It’s so good.
Tasty
WONDERFUL!
