Golden Harvest

Description: The Golden Harvest is a warm, rich cocktail that captures the essence of autumn with its buttery smoothness and hints of spice. The butter washed bourbon adds a velvety texture that pairs perfectly with the fragrant notes of maple syrup and apple cider. Ideal for cozy evenings by the fire or a sophisticated fall gathering. Ingredients: - 2 oz butter washed bourbon - 1 oz apple cider - 0.5 oz maple syrup - 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice - 2 dashes of Angostura bitters - Garnish: apple slice and cinnamon stick Instructions: 1. To create butter washed bourbon, melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter and combine with a 750ml bottle of bourbon. Let it infuse for about 4 hours at room temperature, then place it in the freezer until the butter solidifies. Finally, strain the bourbon through a cheesecloth to remove the butter solids. 2. Once you have your butter washed bourbon ready, combine it with apple cider, maple syrup, lemon juice, and Angostura bitters in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. 3. Shake well for about 15 seconds until the mixture is well-chilled. 4. Strain into a chilled rocks glass over a large ice cube. 5. Garnish with a thin apple slice and a cinnamon stick.
