Whiskey isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when one thinks of Utah (at least not for me), but Park City has quite a craft distilling scene.
Among its distilleries is Alpine Distilling, whose Lafayette Spiced Bourbon was inspired by founder and master distiller Rob Sergent’s great-grandmother, Granny Babe, who would soak ripe stone fruit from her Kentucky farm in moonshine to add flavor. We bet Granny Babe would be a fan of this week’s featured cocktail.
Ingredients:
- 1.25 oz. Alpine Distilling Lafayette Spiced Bourbon
- 0.75 oz. Amaretto
- 0.75 oz. lemon
- 2 dashes aromatic bitters
- 1 egg white
Instructions:
Combine all ingredients and shake in a cocktail shaker. Add ice and shake again. Double strain the cocktail in a martini glass. Garnish with lemon zest and shaved cinnamon. Blow torch the center of the cocktail for added flair.
