Bourbon Cocktail with Apple Cider, Lemon, and Maple Syrup

(recipe from Edible Maine magazine)

2 ounces bourbon
2 ounces cider
1/2 ounce lemon juice
1/2 ounce maple syrup
Lemon peel for garnish

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.  Add the bourbon, maple syrup, and lemon juice.  Give it a good shake.  Pour into an old fashioned glass filled with ice cubes and top with the cider.  Give it a stir and finish with a lemon peel.

Grapefruit Hot Toddy

(recipe from Thug Kitchen)

2 cups water
2 bags black tea
1/2 cup fresh grapefruit juice (about 1 grapefruit) [I used bottled juice]
2 shots bourbon
1 Tbsp. maple syrup
2 cinnamon sticks

Bring the water to a boil on the stove with a kettle or whateverthefuck else you use.  In a large measuring glass or heat-safe pitcher add the grapefruit juice, bourbon, maple syrup, and the cinnamon sticks.  When the water is boiling, pour it into the pitcher, add the tea bags, and cover that motherfucker to keep it warm while the flavors mix.  Let the tea steep for 3 minutes.  Take out the tea bags and cinnamon sticks and serve that shit immediately.
