Added Pear Schnapps to make it an apple & pear sour…sort of.
I have been a Calvados fan since spending time in Normandy where its quite the back roads distillery tradition. A nice twist on this recipe is to cross it with a bourbon old fashions by adjusting this recipe to use half bourbon and half calvados. They go together surprising well.
Love sipping Calvados neat after a meal, but I needed a cocktail for pre-dinner, and all I had was Calvados. Thankfully I found this recipe and I already had lemons and limes and sugar. Done! Delicious apertif!!
