Honeymoon Cocktail

It's Halloween and we sure had lots of witches, goblins,superheroes, princesses, etc. come by. We gave out 150+ packages of candy!

I chose a 'Honeymoon Cocktail' for tonight. 
It was extremely good, so good I fixed a second round, but used a new bottle of Benedictine.  The second drink was better than the first one! I suppose 20 years may be too long to keep a bottle of liqueur. This cocktail may be about the best one we've had.

The recipe (page no. 98 from our Bartender's Guide):

3/4 oz Benedictine
3/4 oz Apple Brandy (Laird's)
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon Triple Sec (LeRoux)

Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass. I garnished the drink with a slice of orange.

Salud!
