Widow’s Kiss

I love this drink. The Widow's Kiss is cocktail poetry, where spicy applejack provides the perfect backbone for the layered herbal character of Bénédictine and Yellow Chartreuse. It’s a spirit-forward, complex sipper that proves why these classic cocktail ingredients belong in every home bar.
