I drink beer in the summer, bourbon whiskey in the winter. But I have a holiday tradition, on the solstice I buy myself a bottle of Lairds and spend the rest of the week mixing Jack Roses.

Jack Rose:

1 1/2 ounces applejack or apple brandy
3/4 ounces lemon or lime juice
1/2 ounce grenadine

Shake all ingredients until chilled, double strain into a coupe glass, garnish with lemon twist.

You'll basically never find a bar that stocks applejack, so if you want one you'll have to mix your own.
