More room for those second and third helpings of turkey and stuffing! Win-win!Plus, an apple a day keeps the doctor away as they say!
I feel like this is left open for some interpretation and will be drinking way more apple brandy this fall and winter. What about you?!
Apples are one of my (Ashley Conway) favorite things to snack on in the fall.
You can’t beat a fresh Lady Apple, but I also really,really enjoy drinking tasty apple co*cktails like this Apple Brandy Allspice Fizz Thanksgiving co*cktail recipe!
Sure there are a plethora of apple cider co*cktails you can be sipping on. But I love mixing with Apple Brandy.
It has beautiful apple flavor and spice-filled notes, but gives you more flexibility than apple juice or cider. You can think of this drink as an Apple Brandy Old Fashioned!

What Is Apple Brandy?
What is Apple Brandy exactly? It is a distilled spirit made entirely from apples (so no corn, wheat, etc).
It’s basically apple juice, but you know, boozy!
There are a lot of spicy notes in the Apple Brandy, which works well in this particular recipe since I used it to compliment through the emulsified, creamy egg white and fizziness of the soda.
Our Fall Poisoned Apple co*cktail is another recipe that features this particular brandy.
Thanksgiving co*cktail Recipe
They most likely enjoyed some (or a lot) of Apple Brandy at the First Thanksgiving!
Apples were so abundant back then. Apples were also easier to distill compared to the many other spirits that they were trying to produce at the time.
The Apple Brandy that I used for this recipe, Laird’s 7 1/2 Year oldhails from my home state. Heeey, New Jersey!
And this particular brand also created the first commercial distillery in America. Thus, producing the first Apple Brandy here. I’ll cheers to that!
If you are not really into the history of booze like I am and prefer to just enjoy a delicious drink, then let’s get to the good part!
