Lolinda has become my new favorite weekend spot. It feels like a night out, but doesn't even require a change of venue after dinner. The cocktail bar upstairs feels like enough of a change, and the cocktails are killer. Tied with the flank steak and charred artichoke, my other favorite item at Lolinda is the Rock n' Rolla cocktail. It is a bourbon, apple, maple, lemon & nutmeg concoction that leads to a not so fabulous hangover. BUT, it is oh-so-worth it! This recipe is my best attempt at their delightful little cocktail.
Serves 1
Ingredients:
- 2 oz. Bourbon Whisky
- 5 oz. fresh apple juice
- 1/4 lemon, juiced
- 1 tsp. maple syrup
- Bitters
- Nutmeg
- Allspice
- Ice
Directions:
-Put ice, bourbon, apple juice and maple syrup in a cocktail shaker and give it a nice shake.
-Add two decent shakes of bitters (yes, that precise ; )
-Pour into a lowball glass or short tumbler over ice.
-Sprinkle with ground nutmeg and allspice.
-Drink, and then repeat.
