Notes:

Elevated Options:

Elevate your presentation game by garnishing with an apple fan. To make the fan, cut a square slice and make a small slit on one side. Cut four ⅛ inch thick apple slices from half of an apple. Slide the square slice onto the glass. Beginning with a large slice and working toward the smallest slice, stick four apple slices onto the apple square.

Death & Co.'s recipe calls for a lemon and orange peel garnish, but I prefer to build on the apple flavor and aromatics from the Calvados by using apple slices for a garnish. Definitely try this cocktail both ways.

Dry January Option: 

There's a variety of NA spirits out there, and I really enjoy Lyre's when I'm taking a break from imbibing. All The Bitter makes NA bitters in a variety of flavors to fully contribute to an alcohol-free old fashioned experience.
