The Stone Fence is a classic cocktail that is believed to have been created during the American Revolution. Legend has it Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys drank them before their raid on Fort Ticonderoga, which is where its name was probably derived. While the most accessible spirit back then was likely rum, nowadays this recipe is commonly made with any dark aged spirit and paired with apple cider and bitters.
Fill a lowball glass with cracked ice.
Add bourbon, apple cider, and bitters lowball glass.
Using a bar spoon, stir for 5-7 seconds.
