Chilled Drink of the Week: Bacardi Apple Bite Cocktail
By Chilled Magazine
Ease the bittersweet transition from summer to fall with the Apple Bite cocktail, a fall-inspired cocktail made with Bacardi Gran Reserva Ocho Años, super-premium mixing rum.
“Gastriques are a charming combination that can dress up food or cocktails. The apple gastrique in the Bacardi Apple Bite imparts a nice and settled acidity and mellow sweetness. This cocktail has an elegant balance and a beautiful aroma of caramelized apples that I personally can enjoy all year round.”
– Mixologist Juan Coronado
