25 Days of Christmas Cocktails Day 2: Walnut Old Fashioned


For day two, Anu sends us a rich, slow sipping cocktail that demands good company, a cozy fire and a good book. And if you missed Day One, get caught up here.

2 oz. calvados
1/4 oz. walnut liqueur (Apte uses Haus Alpenz)
1/4 oz. demerara syrup (2:1)
3 dashes Angostura bitters
Tools: mixing glass, barspoon
Glass: Old Fashioned
Garnish: lemon twist

Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass filled with ice. Stir to combine and strain into an Old Fashioned glass over a large cube. Garnish and serve.
