Chill a cocktail coupe in advance to ensure it's perfectly frosty.

Prepare a lemon zest twist to serve as a garnish.

In a mixing glass, combine the Applejack brandy, Strucchi Rosso Vermouth, Hayman's Sloe Gin liqueur, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and rich sugar syrup.

Add ice and stir the mixture until well chilled.

Fine strain the cocktail into the pre-chilled coupe glass.

Express the lemon zest twist over the cocktail to release its oils, then place it as a garnish atop the drink.
