This Apple Bourbon Cocktail cocktail is full of the smoky, spicy flavors of Fall.
Ingredients
- ½ apple, peeled, cored and sliced
- 2 ounce bourbon
- ⅓ ounce simple syrup
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1½ ounce spiced apple cider, or to taste
- ounce cinnamon and sugar for rim, optional
Directions
Muddle 2 slices of the apple in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Combine the bourbon, simple syrup and lemon juice in the cocktail shaker with ice. Shake vigorously. Pour into a Collins glass over ice. Top with spiced apple cider, to taste. Garnish with more apple slices. If you like, rim the glass with cinnamon and sugar before mixing the cocktail.
never saw Meatballs, but don’t even get me started about Stripes!
In the directions, you mention adding egg yolk, milk, etc. to the riced potatoes and ground chicken. You also mention adding cheese, but there’s no cheese in the ingredients list. What kind of cheese, and how much?
Thanks!

I fixed it, 2 tablesppon grated Parmesan. GREG
What a dog piece of poo. Then again, Murry had nothing to do with it.
My favorite Murray role was his cameo in Zombieland, he was a RIOT.
I have to try these on the grill. My sister got me a meatball grill basket for Christmas that needs to get used. Plus, I like the potato added, I did that when I tried to copy the “McRib” with some ground pork.
Of course, now I’m dating MYself, but I’ve never seen this movie! Or heard of it. But I’ve now planned a super exciting Friday night trip to Blockbuster…and after that, I’ll never be able to think of meatballs without laughing again either.
I love the idea of using Yukon gold potatoes instead of bread in the meatballs!
You might be the only person on earth to get me to eat ground chicken. I loved Bill Murrary Sat Night live days too!
GREG — these look so good, I am literally salivating at my computer desk. (Maybe I should eat some lunch?) Love Bill Murray of the old days — Spies Like Us, Ghostbusters, Caddyshack! xo, Dawn
Thanks for feeding us.
Sincerely,
The Table Set
I read this about how old Bill Murray is and then I reflected on how old I am and that I know how to laugh at meatballs too.
However, I don’t think these are laughable meatballs. These are more elegant than the meatballs of the 70s and 80s.
Your meatballs look terrific, I like that you add potatoes in, and the artichokes and carrots are a great accompaniment.
Wish I could reminisce about being an awakard adoloscent in ’79 but I was a bit beyond adoloscent. I do adore Bill…he has a true gift to make you laugh. I will always remember him more from the early days, but then again at my age short term memory is gone. Did I say adore Bill?
I totally miss that Bill Murray. That crazy character. I’m pretty sure that’s a Canadian flick and a classic. Meatballs, fitting for this great recipe. Saved. To be made shortly.
I remember ’79 and the ‘real’ SNL but, strangely, not “Meatballs”.
I seem to be seeing a lot of meatballs around the internet lately. I guess they’re everyone’s favorite ‘go-to’ meal. Your skillet looks mighty good.
Greg, I’m printing this recipe — love the artichokes and lemon you include…Yes, Bill was a riot — remember him as the crooner in the ole SNL skits?!
