  • Delicious! It was perfect (the only change I made was to use non-Irish whiskey), a wonderful fall treat. I want to have a party JUST so I can serve this to my guests, now.

  • Soooo delicious. The flavors go together perfectly. it's got just the right amount of kick to it. Everyone loved it - I should have made twice as much! Hint: use GOOD Calvados.

  • Excellent! Especially good in the Fall. I made a very large batch and served it in a punch bowl. Everyone loved it! Definately making this a few more times during cider season.
