Festive Kiss

We love the Widow’s Kiss – it’s such a great classic cocktail utilizing one of our favourite spirits – Calvados. This drink is perfectly paired with an apple crumble, but not to worry – this is absolutely delicious on its own.

Ingredients:
1.50 oz | 45 ml Avallen Calvados
0.50 oz | 15 ml yellow chartreuse
0.50 oz | 15 ml benedictine
0.50 oz | 15 ml amontillado sherry
2 dashes Bittered Sling Kensington Aromatic Bitters
Lemon peel and dried apple chip, for garnish.

Add the calvados, liqueurs, sherry and bitters to a mixing glass with ice. Stir until chilled and diluted – about 15 rotations. Strain neat into a chilled cocktail glass. Express the oils from a lemon peel over the top of the drink, and discard. Garnish with an apple chip.
