Fireside Cocktail (Non-Alcoholic)
This crisp, bitter, and smoky Non-Alcoholic Fireside Cocktail is a unique and lightly sweet autumnal drink. It's perfect for enjoying on a chilly autumn evening spent by the fire.
Ingredients
- 1 sprig rosemary
- 1 oz (30 ml) Pathfinder Spirit
- 1 oz (30 ml) Spiritless Kentucky 74 Spiced
- 1 ½ oz (45 ml) spiced apple cider *
- ½ oz (15 ml) fresh lemon juice
- ¼ oz (7.5 ml) pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Smoke a small sprig of rosemary and place it on a plate. We use a kitchen torch for this but a match works too.
- Quickly put a rocks glass on top of the rosemary as it's smoking.** Let it rest like that while you make the cocktail.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with the remaining ingredients then add ice. Shake for 10 seconds until chilled.
- Turn the rocks glass over and fill with ice. Strain the cocktail into the glass.
- Garnish with the smoked rosemary sprig. We like to re-smoke it, but that's optional. Enjoy!
Notes
- We use a clear spiced apple cider. If you use a cloudy one, just note that your drink might look more opaque.
- Make sure there's no active, burning flame when you cover the rosemary sprig. You want it to smoke not burn.
- Smoking the glass with the rosemary imparts a smoky flavor to the drink. We also like to re-smoke the rosemary garnish because it smells nice and smoky each time you go for a sip.
