Apple Pie No. 1

This picture is by our front door.  The flowers were the same color as the drink and Olga couldn't resist.
This rum drink (with apple brandy) is the second in two days. Taste was, again, disappointing. I think I'll go back to gin or a brandy base for a while.

Tonight's recipe was on page 33 - 'Apple Pie No. 1'

3/4 oz Rum
3/4 oz Sweet Vermouth
1 teaspoon Apple Brandy (not enough to tell in the drink)
1 teaspoon Grenadine
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass

Not a bad drink - but not a one good either.
But as usual, we drank it up and then got a beer for me and a glass of wine for Olga

Cheers
