I know this is off Tiki, but I also know there are others on here simply into great cocktails. A man can not live by Tiki drinks alone... or at least I can't...smile. Lately have been experimenting with the Jack Rose, and what a GREAT cocktail it is. Of course the secret to a great Jack Rose is homemade Grenadine. Otherwise it just doesn't cut it. I believe this is why you can count on your hand the number of bars in the US that serve a Jack Rose. I am fortunate enough to have one of those bars here in Nashville Tn. The Patterson House.
I was curious if there were others here that were Jack Rose fans?

Jack Rose

2oz Laird's AppleJack
1oz Lemon Juice
