Every year I buy a bottle of Laird’s and make Jack Roses around the winter break. And I’m…doing that. Applejack isn’t that easy to find, a lot of liquor stores don’t bother to carry it but I found some.

I made the grenadine a little too thick this year, it’s a proper pancake goo rather than a sugary liquid but it’s still tasty. I think next year I’m going to buy fresh pomegranates and milk them myself rather than buying juice.
