Apricot Blvd

#HandcraftAfterDark | Episode 4: Apricot Blvd
(Original recipe & suggestion by: @trufflesontherocks/@jfdesfosses)

On the last episode of #HandcraftAfterDark, I asked y’all for some suggestions on what I should make next and I happily obliged on one of the submissions from my friend Jean-Félix (@jfdesfosses) of @trufflesontherocks. This recipe is dark, moody, complex and of course, delicious. I’m so glad this was suggested. It was an honor to be able to make this one and hope y’all give it a try too!

About this series:
I’m featuring some of my favorite night caps and maybe even some recipes that YOU recommend. Here’s the catch: they always have to be stirred and must contain 4 or less ingredients (not including the garnish).

This series will be no-frills, quick, easy, and straightforward recipes that you can make in less than 5 minutes. Have a favorite recipe that fits the description above? Let me know in the comments section and maybe I’ll make it for the next episode.

Cheers y’all
