Toffee Apple Cocktail

This recipe makes two cocktails, however it could be easily adpated to cater for a larger party. The Muldoon Whiskey adds a lovely twist to the mulled Stonewell cider. This is a cocktail that is guaranteed to warm you up on those cold winter nights.

For the cocktail
2 shots of Muldoon’s whiskey
½ packet of Mulled Spices (We used Saffron Mulled Wine Spice)
1 bottle of chilled Stonewell Medium Dry Cider
Toffee Sauce for dipping the rim (See Below)
5g of salt
5g of brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon for the rim

For the Sticky Toffee Sauce
100g Brown Sugar
50ml cream
50ml golden syrup
100g butter
200ml Stonewell Medium Dry Cider
(If you made the sticky toffee sauce for the Apple Cinnamon Crumble cake you can use leftovers for the cocktail)

Firstly, add one bottle of Stonewell Medium Dry cider and half a packet of mulled spices to a pot and bring it up to a light simmer for 15 minutes.

Next prepare the toffee sauce; add the 50ml cream, 50ml golden syrup, 100g brown sugar and 100g of butter to another pot over a low heat, when it begins to simmer add 200ml Stonewell cider and lower hear cooking for 40 mins. Allow the sauce to cool slightly.

Mix together the salt, brown sugar and the cinnamon on a plate. On another plate pour some of the toffee sauce prepared earlier onto a plate, ready for the cocktail glasses to be dipped in.

Dip the cocktail glass into the toffee sauce and then into the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Add a shot of Muldoon whiskey to each glass and top up with the mulled Stonewell cider.

Enjoy your cocktail.
