Notes & Review

Most Pink Lady recipes don't include this much sugar and are pretty dry. The full 3/4oz of 2:1 honey syrup here makes this a sweet drink, so consider taking that down a notch. The Pink Lady is also usually served up, in a coupe, which I think would be my preference as well. The rocks glass with large ice cube was not large enough to hold this drink, especially considering the egg white froth. This is a frothy, tasty cocktail. The apple brandy gives it a bit of a kick and keeps it from being just another gin sour. The grenadine gives the drink a nice pink color and sweet/sour finish.
