The Jack Rose is a classic cocktail that has been enjoyed for decades. This delicious drink is made with just three simple ingredients – applejack, grenadine, and lime juice. It's easy to make at home and perfect for sipping on a warm summer evening.

Origins of the Jack Rose

The exact origins of the Jack Rose are somewhat murky, but it is believed to have been popular in the early 20th century. The cocktail was named after an infamous gambler and saloon owner named Bald Jack Rose who operated in New York City during Prohibition. The drink became associated with him due to his fondness for it.

How to Make a Jack Rose

To make a classic Jack Rose cocktail, you will need:

  • 2 oz applejack or apple brandy

Tips for Making the Perfect Jack Rose Cocktail

If you don't have grenadine syrup on hand, you can easily make your own by combining equal parts pomegranate juice and sugar in a saucepan over low heat until the sugar dissolves. For an extra touch of elegance, consider rimming your glass with sugar before pouring in your cocktail mixture. Experimenting with different types of apple brandy can also change up the flavor profile of your drink – try using calvados or another type of apple-based spirit for something new. Enjoy this timeless classic cocktail responsibly!
