For a couple of years in the 1990s, I drank ginger beer all the time. I can't even remember what brands I used to drink, but I was always experimenting with the stuff to see what cocktails I could come up with. I have to admit I never tried mixing it with apple.
This is the Apple Bomb, and besides ginger beer it features applejack, apple juice, and a lot of apple pieces on a skewer.
Apple Bomb
2 ounces applejack
2 ounces chilled apple juice
1 1/2 ounces chilled ginger beer
3 pieces of candied ginger or 1 apple slice, skewered on a pick
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the applejack and apple juice and shake well. Stir in the ginger beer and strain into an ice-filled rocks glass. Garnish with candied ginger.
