There’s a distinct whiff of just about everyone’s favourite British winter pudding in this seasonal cocktail, hence the name. It’s just a simple assembly job, too, with no flashy bartender tricks.
Serves 1
40ml bourbon
30ml apple juice
5ml vanilla extract
5ml cannelle syrup
5ml amaretto
1 slice lemon, to rim the glass
1 digestive biscuit, crushed
1 apple fan, to garnish
Put all the liquids in a shaker, add ice and shake hard. Rub the lemon all around the rim of a martini glass, then dip the top of the glass in the crushed biscuit mix, to coat. Double-strain the contents of the shaker into the glass, taking care not to dislodge the biscuit, garnish with an apple fan and serve.
