Lumberjack
HB-7519 · Hand-built original
A single apple cider cocktail with Amaro Nonino and orange bitters topped with club soda, garnished with a charred rosemary sprig wrapped in an orange twist.
Main ingredient: zest
Ingredients
- 1 wide strip orange zest
- 1 sprig rosemary
- 2 oz. apple cider
- 1½ oz. Amaro Nonino
- 1 dash orange bitters
- 2 oz. club soda
Method
- Trim the edges of the wide strip of orange zest with a small knife to tidy it, wrap the strip around a chopstick and let it sit for 2 minutes so it holds its curl.
- Pierce a hole in each end of the orange twist with the knife, wrap it around the rosemary sprig and thread the rosemary through both holes to secure the twist to the sprig.
- Hold the larger end of the rosemary sprig and pass the wrapped end over the flame of a gas stovetop burner until the orange and rosemary are lightly charred and just starting to smoke, or char them under a hot broiler on a baking sheet on the top rack.
- Pour the apple cider, Amaro Nonino and the dash of orange bitters into a glass filled with ice and top the drink off with the club soda.
- Stir the cocktail with the charred rosemary sprig to combine it, then rest the sprig across the top of the glass as the garnish.
