- This is How to Drink,
the show about making cocktails
and how to drink them.
I'm Greg, and I have never been a professional bartender.
I've never even had a job in a bar.
I don't worry too much about precision
and technique because at the end of the day,
if the drink you like is in the glass,
we did it right.
Let's get going.
Let's make a Jersey Sunset.
This is a variation on a Sling from like the 1890s.
I don't think I've ever seen this served anywhere.
I'm from New Jersey though so...
Think of it like a classier Tequila Sunrise.
We're gonna do a half an ounce of Gomme Syrup
for this drink
Uh, we're gonna do two ounces of Apple Jack.
In this case, this seven and a half year old
Laird's Apple Brandy.
A lot of people don't know that prior to prohibition
the most popular distilled spirit in America
was Apple Jack.
As a matter of fact, the entire slogan
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away,"
was invented by, basically ad men,
on behalf of the apple grower's industry
because the only function for apples at the time
was to make cider and Apple Jack.
So they came up with the idea that apples were healthy
and that an apple a day would keep the doctor away.
And there we have apples,
and the idea that you should eat them
and not drink them.
We need a twist of lemon for this drink.
Uh, for a couple of reasons
because of the way this drink gets built,
I'm going to twist it over the mixing glass
and not the serving glass.
That's pretty good.
As a matter of fact, I'm going to throw that
right into the mixing glass in this case.
I'm gonna fill this with cracked ice and give it a stir.
(upbeat jazz)
I have my Sling glass ready.
I'm gonna strain this over it.
(jazz music)
The reason it's called the Jersey Sunset
is because of this float of bitters
that we're going to add to the top of it
that's going to cascade down, hopefully.
Hopefully.
(upbeat jazz music)
The original recipe calls for the use of Angostura Bitters.
I'm using the Creole Bitters from the Bitter Truth.
One, I love the taste of these bitters.
I often at night after work,
I just have some Creole Bitters and seltzer.
I'm actually running kind of low.
Uh, and, also I really thought that the
super bright red color here would be perfect for this drink.
Let's give it a taste.
I'm ready for this.
(jazz music)
That is a fun drink.
That's kind of like nothing else I've ever had.
I mean, that's really really really unique.
You really get the apples.
This is a great autumn drink.
It's a Jersey Sunset.
It's a classy drink for a classy state.
Uh, and it is though, because we call it Apple Jack,
but it's Apple Brandy.
You know, this stuff is not
armpit of the country booze juice.
This is legit stuff.
Hey, thanks for watching the show.
If you like it, I hope you'll subscribe.
I like to respond to your comments so leave me one.
Tell me what you think.
If you've ever had a Jersey Sunset
served a different way, or made a different way,
let me know.
If you hate the way I did it,
or the fact that I substituted Bitter Truth Bitters
for Agostura, you can let me know about that too.
The community at r/cocktails on Reddit
has been enormous for the support of this drink.
Thank you, so, support of this drink?
Support of this show.
Thank you so much.
I love hearing all of your comments.
Thanks for watching.
I hope you'll stay tuned,
and we'll make another drink for you guys next week
here on How to Drink.
Boy was that goofy.
That was dumb.
(clicks) Eh buddy, eh buddy!
