🍎🍊 Ready for something boldly different this spring? My Apple & Orange Maple Bourbon Cocktail is a charming twist on the usual floral cocktails of the season. Imagine the warm, rich notes of bourbon mingling with crisp unsweetened apple juice and vibrant orange, all smoothed over with a maple simple syrup. It’s a perfect blend of bold and bright—ideal for savoring with friends or a quiet moment to yourself. Did You Know this about Maple Syrup? • Maple syrup is usually harvested during the early spring when the nights are still cold and the days begin to warm, causing the sap to flow more freely from the trees. • Traditional harvesting involves drilling a small hole into the trunk of a maple tree, inserting a spout, and hanging a bucket to collect the sap, which is later boiled down to produce delicious syrup. • Most maple syrup producers use sustainable practices to ensure the health of the maple trees. Trees are carefully selected and tapped in a way that does not harm their growth or longevity, allowing them to continue producing sap for many years. Fascinating! #straighttotheipsbaby #mapletree #maplesyrup
