This cocktail was featured on our first menu in Spring 2023. While some might think it is named after the character’s from the movie Titanic, this cocktail is actually quite old, dating back to the turn of the century. This is a simple THREE INGREDIENT COCKTAIL, so it’s great for beginners. Any Apple Brandy will do for your base, and remember to fresh squeeze whichever juice you decide to use (we like lemon).
For the Grendadine, in the past we would have argued to make your own, as it is very easy to do on the stove (basically pomegranate and sugar), but we got a hold of a couple bottles of Anders Erickson’s Grenadine, and it is AWESOME! So we recommend giving it a try. Here’s the LINK to get a bottle of your very own. And NEVER use Rose’s Grenadine again!
