The Hot Adam's Apple (Smirnoff, boiled cider, and spices.)
Americans have always liked their coffee hot and their tea hot, but time was, they liked their liquor hot, too. Colonial tipplers liked their spirits steaming and, despite what you may have heard, they seldom took them straight.
Cider, boiled and spiced,was the favorite mixer. We tried it mixed with Smimoff and we were pleasantly surprised. The same drink cold is our old favorite, the Adam's Apple.
So, if the hot version doesn't grab you, just pour it into a glassful of ice cubes. Either way, we wish you well. Happy Holidays.
To make a Hot Adam's Apple pour 11/2 oz. Smimoff into a cup or mug. Add 4 oz. boiled cider, then add a twist of lemon, a dash of fresh nutmeg and a cinnamon stick
Smirnoff leaves you breathless.
