World Calvados Day Thursday 20th October
Today Thursday, 20th October, is World Calvados Day. If you would like to try this fabulous French apple brandy how about making something different? Calvados and tonic is France’s answer to the G&T and is a staple in Normandy. Although traditionally served chilled, it is just as fabulous with heaps of ice, a ton of tonic and a simple lemon twist producing a drink that’s “A little bitter and sweet, refreshing and bright”.
