#DOTW: Apple Rosemary Rickey


It’s time to get fruity! I love everything apple: apple shampoo, apple body spray, apple sauce, and yes, I love apple in my cocktail! This one is made with Cointreau, which I also happen to love. It’s a classy cocktail, refreshing and delicious. It involves some muddling, so it’s not ideal for parties, unless you want to muddle all evening. Enjoy this sip of yummy while we’re waiting for spring….

What you’ll need:

  • 2 oz Cointreau
  • 1 oz fresh lime juice
  • 3 oz club soda
  • fresh rosemary
  • fresh tart apples

Muddle one apple slice and a few rosemary leaves in the bottom of a glass. Pour in the Cointreau and fresh lime juice. Add ice and top off with club soda, stir gently and briefly. Garnish with a rosmary twig and apple slices.

Hello there, fellow foodies! My name is Erica, I was born and raised in Germany, and moved to the US, New York City to be exact, in July of 1987. I have worked most of my time here in the Big Apple as a bartender, but my true love is food. I cook just about every day, I search for good food everywhere, and pretty much always find it. I don't consider myself a food critic, I don't have the culinary background for that kind of expertise. I do however know good food, good chefs and good restaurants. I report back about my culinary adventures, and I choose to leave out my unsatisfactory experiences. We have enough negativity in our daily lives, I don't want to add to that. All the recipes in my FROM MY KITCHEN and DOTW blogs are cooked and prepared by me. All pictures are taken by me. I don't always eat everything you see in my pictures, but you bet your buns, I do try everything. Last but not least, you should know that I am a huge Top Chef fan. I have never missed an episode of the Bravo TV show. I have at this point visited almost 20 restaurants run by Top Chef contestants, and I'm continuously impressed by their skill, drive and passion. So I will continue to seek them out, and I hope you join me in my journey!
