365 Drinks a Year: #43 The Washington Apple
Drank so much alcohol he didn't ever have to brush his teeth.
It's Presidents' Day. What does that mean to you? NOTHING. Because poor schmucks like you and me still have to go to work, and we have to deal with a 1000% increase in little kid noise wherever we go. The only solace we have is to drink away our sorrows in honor of the founder of modern dentures, President George Washington.
The Washington Apple
2 parts Apple Liqueur
2 parts Bourbon
2 parts Cranberry Juice
Ok, normally this drink uses Canadian Whiskey. What the fuck is that about? Even if the only Apple Liqueur you can find is Sour Apple Pucker© at least have the decency to make this drink with an American Whiskey.
Actually now that I think of it, I don't think I know of any other apple liqueur. If anyone knows a good one leave it in the comments. Thanks.

have you thought about following the lectionary and making a drink from the daily reading?
example: Old Testament – Deuteronomy 9…? Unclean blah blah blah. Jose’, gin and a twist of apple funk. Smells like ass but tastes great!
or something like Song of Solomon. fruit of the loin drink. maybe some heavy aphrodisiac inducing drink. oyster juice and dark chocolate liquor.

HA! No. I have not yet thought of using the Bible as a source of new cocktail material.
