Warm Apple Salad

“Don’t cook with alcohol you wouldn’t drink” are words I live by; so why not pair the oaky, brown-sugar-and-cinnamon notes of Far North Spirits’ premiere rye with other fall favorites like apples, pecans, and endive? I love that bartender Robb Jones brings his culinary training to this delicious salad and dressing recipe, and so will your family and friends.
