For most drinkers of a certain age, Jägermeister is the unofficial source of many bad decisions. But in this cocktail from Sother Teague of Amor y Amargo in New York, it acts as the base of a bone-warming drink that combines the herbal notes of the liqueur with apple brandy for a decidedly adult way to fortify oneself after a day out in the cold.
Epi's Note:
If you don't have apple bitters, orange bitters can be substituted. Be sure to use high-proof apple brandy here, not applejack.
Ingredients
1 ½ ounces Jägermeister
1 ounce apple brandy
2 dashes apple bitters
Garnish orange twist
Preparation
Combine the Jägermeister, brandy, and bitters in an ice-filled rocks glass and stir gently. Garnish with an orange twist.
