This weekend &#8212; it was the seasonal apple cider liqueurs. Both Jack Daniels and Evan Williams do one. As I&#8217;ve mentioned before, I&#8217;m not the biggest fan of brown liquors, so I&#8217;ve been hesitant to buy these in the past. After a chat with the salesguy, who was a self-described whiskey nut, I decided to give the Evan Williams a try.<\/p>\n<p>Once safely home for the evening, I poured a little in a glass for a taste. Sweet &#8230; apple-y &#8230; backnotes of fall spices. I imagine it would be tasty warm! But I was thinking more of an iced cocktail (it was pretty warm over the weekend), and I spied two orphan Shock-Tops in the back of the fridge, a Honeycrisp Apple Wheat and a Pumpkin Wheat. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve ever attempted a beer cocktail, but I knew the Honeycrisp Apple Wheat had definite apple notes, so I said, what the hell. And so this cocktail was born. The two really do complement each other, and the mild bitterness of the ale tempers the sweetness of the liqueur. You&#8217;ll get three drinks out of a bottle of beer &#8212; so these really are on the milder side. But very refreshing!<\/p>\n<p>As this runs a little under $10\/bottle, it&#8217;s a nice addition to your fall larder.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.michellematlack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014-11-09-16.08.48.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2773\" alt=\"SAMSUNG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.michellematlack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/2014-11-09-16.08.48-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><strong>When Evan Met Belgium<\/strong><br \/>\nServes 1<\/p>\n<p>3 tablespoons Evan Williams Apple Orchard<br \/>\nSplash of lime<br \/>\n4 ounces medium-bodied Belgian-style wheat ale<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Put ice in a rocks glass.
