Adam and Eve, according to the Bible, are the first humans created by God, placed in the Garden of Eden, and are central to the story of humanity’s fall from grace. Eve, followed by Adam, ate the forbidden apple from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, leading to their expulsion from the Garden of Eden and the introduction of sin into the world.
Speaking of sin, this sinfully delicious cocktail is made with Angel’s Envy Bourbon and apple-based Calvados, bringing you a spirit forward new age classic, inspired by an old world story.
