Rachel Maddow will drink you under the table

Oh Rachel Maddow, my crush. First, you get the luxury of going on television every night and smacking around Pat Buchanan. Now you show us how to make a classic cocktail with the best of them, first explaining that applejack is “not so much an apple brandy as it is an apple whiskey” and then coolly noting that “any liquor that has the word bond on the label is a 100 proof.”

Here’s Maddow shaking like a pro and making a Jack Rose.

The Jack Rose via CocktailDB:
1 1/2 oz applejack

1/2 oz fresh lime juice (Substitute fresh lemon juice) 
1/2 oz grenadine
Shake in iced cocktail strainer and strain into a cocktail glass.
