Expectations

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

Combine the Applejack, Falernum, Blue Curaçao, freshly squeezed lemon juice, Jerez Sherry Vinegar, and Cherry Bitters in a cocktail shaker.

Fill the shaker with ice and give it a vigorous shake until the mixture is well-chilled.

Strain the cocktail into the prepared coupe glass, ensuring a smooth and crisp presentation.
