Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Bourbon
  • 2 Apple(s) one green, one red, chopped
  • 3 Sugar Cubes
  • 1 Whole Nutmeg slightly shaved
  • 4 Cinnamon Stick plus more for garnish
  • 1- inch Ginger

Instructions

Prepare the Infusion:

  • In a mason jar, combine 1.5 cups of bourbon, the chopped green and red apples, 3 sugar cubes, slightly shaved whole nutmeg, 4 cinnamon sticks, and a 1-inch piece of fresh ginger.

Infuse the Flavors:

  • Seal the jar and let the mixture sit for 2 to 4 days, shaking it gently each day. Taste after 2 days and let it sit longer if you want a stronger flavor.

Serve the Shots:

  • Strain the infused bourbon into shot glasses. Garnish each shot with a small cinnamon stick for a festive touch. Serve and enjoy the warm, spiced flavor of Apple Pie Bourbon Shots.

Notes

Apple Pie Bourbon Shots are a delightful way to capture the essence of autumn in a small, powerful package. The infusion process allows the bourbon to absorb the flavors of fresh apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, creating a drink that’s both comforting and bold. These shots are perfect for a fall-themed party or a special treat on a cool evening. For an even richer flavor, you can let the mixture infuse longer, up to a week.
