BUNKER'S LOVE AFFAIR
The cocktails made at Wassail, a cider bar on the Lower East Side, use not only cider, but also other spirits derived from apples, such as Calvados and Pommeau, which is a mix of apple juice and Calvados. Bunker's Love Affair, created by Wassail's head bartender, Jade Brown-Godfrey, combines all three. The drink is boozy and fruity in equal measure. The multiple layers of apple flavor are cut by the bitter gentian backbone of the Suze (which, like all the ingredients in this cocktail, is French). The drink is named in honor of John Bunker, a Maine pomologist who has worked to preserve older varieties of apples.
