We teamed up with our pals at Boathouse Sports to create an Italian style aperitif that's built on a base on 6 year old apple brandy made from local Delaware apples. A sweet but bitter aperitif filled with flavors of orange, rhubarb, thyme, and red rooibos tea, this goodness is perfect for prosecco spritzes or as a partner in gin and whiskey cocktails.
