Notes
Apple Pie Bourbon Shots are a delightful way to capture the essence of autumn in a small, powerful package. The infusion process allows the bourbon to absorb the flavors of fresh apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, creating a drink that’s both comforting and bold. These shots are perfect for a fall-themed party or a special treat on a cool evening. For an even richer flavor, you can let the mixture infuse longer, up to a week.
