I had a bottle of the Laird Old Apple Brandy (80 proof), not the bonded. So I decided to go 1 to 1, but I used your suggestion for syrup (just rich demera) and bitters. Very nice.

I followed your link to Petraske's obit. What was his argument in favor of jiggers. It's a nice bit of theater for a bar, but it makes a mess in kitchen.
