Apple Caramel Whiskey Sour
Makes 1 cocktail
2 oz rye whiskey or bourbon
1 T lemon juice
3 oz apple cider (or apple juice)
1 T caramel sauce, homemade or purchased
Green apple slices, for garnish
To sugar rim:
A little extra caramel
1-2 T sugar
I like to sugar the rims of my glasses. With a clean finger, run a thin layer of caramel around the edge of the glass. Place sugar on a plate and roll edge through sugar to adhere.
Fill a cocktail shaker half full of ice. Add whisky, lemon juice, cider, and caramel sauce. Shake 20 seconds until cold. Strain into prepared glass filled with ice.
