Making An "Apple Jack" Shot

Series Summary

Alcohol has been a cultural staple of the West for thousands of years. As many as six and a half thousand years ago, wine was a large part of Greek culture and religion. Beer is probably equally as old, being brewed by royalty and peasants since the birth of European civilization. Monasteries were early producers and distributors of beer during the Dark Ages. By the 8th and 9th centuries, Muslim alchemists had produced distilled alcohols and “spirits” that became popular beverages. The American tradition of alcohol is centered on the bar, known in England and English-speaking countries as a Public House, or pub. Descendents of the rowdy mead halls celebrated in Beowulf, the bar is a focal point of social life and the various mating rituals of American adults.

Video Transcript

"Hi! I'm Adam. We're here at The Bird All American Bar and Grill in beautiful downtown Mount Pleasant, Michigan. On behalf of Expert Village, we are going to mix up some drinks today, pour some shots, and have some fun. In this clip, we're going to make an Apple Jack shot. We're going to start by adding a little ice to our shaker and about half a shot each of Jack Daniels and Apple Pucker. That's your Apple Jack shot. The ingredients for an Apple Jack shot are Apple Pucker and Jack Daniels's whiskey. This is going to be much better than the Prairie Fire. Cheers. That one's cold and good."
