Cocktail Description
The Soixante-Quinze is autumn's answer to sophisticated sipping—a crimson-hued cocktail that captures the essence of a stroll through an apple orchard at harvest time.
This elegant drink marries the botanical complexity of London Dry gin with the rich apple notes of Laird's Applejack, while real pomegranate grenadine adds subtle sweetness and that gorgeous ruby color. Fresh lemon juice brightens the whole affair with just enough acidity to keep things interesting, resulting in a perfectly balanced cocktail that's simultaneously crisp, fruity, and refreshing. It's surprisingly easy to make despite its sophisticated flavor profile—just a simple shake with ice and a fine strain into a chilled Nick & Nora glass, finished with a twist of lemon zest that adds aromatic citrus oils to each sip. Perfect for fall gatherings or as an aperitif before a special dinner, this cocktail shines alongside savory dishes like roast pork, duck, or a cheese board featuring aged cheddars and creamy brie.
