With Boge Bränneri's award winning apple spirit we made an apple spritz. Given the labour that went into the bottle (and the price of it) it's a much luxurious cocktail. But don't let it stop you! Äpplespritz (Apple Spritz) Recipe by Cocktail Detour Ingredients 40 ml Boge Bränneri Äpple 10 ml Boge Bränneri Britta 10 ml lemon juice Sprite (or club soda) to top up with Directions Build in a highball glass, over a large ice cube. Garnish with apple.

recipe by Harry Craddock 20 ml Calvados 20 ml Cognac 20 ml Cointreau 20 ml lemon juice a barspoon or two of simple syrup Shake all ingredients with fresh ice and strain into a coupe. This Sidecar riff is exquisite and the Calvados in it really comes through. The apple flavour fits this type of drink very well. We were lucky having some Amalfi lemons available during our Calvados Cocktail Lab session. These juicy lemons are sour for sure, but almost in a sweet way - if that makes sense.

Then add ice to the shaker and continue shaking until fluffy. Strain into cocktail glasses. Our Calvados Cocktail Lab resulted in more than a handful of drinks. Probably the most unexpected but also the most fun was this flip (meaning an egg based cocktail) that Bella Porcile invented during the lab. Apart from the egg there’s Boulard G

This is an intriguing one. Apple brandy is mixed with Swedish punsch, while there is also both rum and orange liqueur in the mix. The result is a fairly complex, interesting and enticing drink that we thoroughly enjoyed.⁠ ⁠ We believe punsch is more and more available around the world these days. It's fun to sea it used in cocktail recipes, as it was previously mainly served with certain food dishes in Sweden (especially with yellow pea soup). It's great in drinks though, so we like the route pu

Using apple brandy and Calvados is a great way when you want to create those summery cocktails. The apple flavour is very refreshing, at the same time maintaining that stiffness we often want from a cocktail.⁠ ⁠ Now there are quite a few ingredients in this one, but most are only added in small amounts. It's still vary much the apple brandy defining the drink.⁠ ⁠ We actually swapped the apple juice and the honey syrup for an Apple, Honey & Lemon still drink from The Soho Juice co [https://sohoju

Mixing only two ingredients can still create an awesome cocktail. In this one we're using only local products, Calvados from Kiviks Musteri [https://www.kiviksmusteri.se/sv/vara-produkter/calvados/calvados/] and Orange Vermouth from Spriteriet [https://spriteriet.se/] - both super Swedish.⁠ ⁠ We immediately appreciated the spring vibes this cocktail had going. The apples in the Calvados combined with the unique orange vermouth create this mellow drink, which still has quite the bite thanks to th
