Washington Apple Shot

A crisp red shot built around whiskey, sour apple, and cranberry. The appeal is balance: enough fruit to feel bright, enough whiskey to give it backbone, and enough color to look great in a clear glass. It is especially good for game nights, home-bar tastings, and fall gatherings.
