Cocktail Colin says:
The Washington Apple is a brisk and tangy mixture that combines the rustic charm of whiskey with the crisp sweetness of apple schnapps and a dash of cranberry juice. This shot is a celebration of fruity flavors, making it a go-to choice for a spirited, quick drink with a lingering apple finish.
