When I was in college, I sang in the Glee Club with a classic Southern Gentleman - he was unfailingly charming and chivalrous, and looked great in tails. He now lives in New Orleans, and posts recipes for classic cocktails on his Facebook Wall (old meets new). This is an adaptation of one of his fine recipes. It can also be made with rum. - Savour —Savour
Bourbon and apples taste so good together; bourbon with Calvados is even better. By using lightly sweetened milk as the base for this drink, Savour showcases that winning flavor combination with intelligent restraint. With its pleasant “nose,” thanks to the light sprinkling of mace, and the mellowing of the booze by the hot milk, one could argue that this falls squarely in the “comfort food” category. I tested it a second time using only one spoon of sugar, which made it plenty sweet for my taste. I highly recommend this luxurious but straightforward cold-weather delight. ;o) —AntoniaJames
