This is another classic from the 1930 Savoy Cocktail Book.

A depth bomb, or more commonly a depth charge, is a weapon used to destroy submarines. In this case, though, the Depth Bomb is an amazing Calvados and Brandy cocktail. It's 1/2 Brandy and 1/2 Apple Brandy, thinned with a little bit of lemon juice and grenadine. If you love Calvados (as I do), I think you'll be a fan. Go easy on the grenadine, or else you might end up with a bit too much of a candy flavor.
Depth Bomb Cocktail
- 1 1/2 oz Brandy
- 1 1/2 oz Calvados (or Apple Brandy)
- Dashes lemon juice
- Dashes Grenadine (Probably 1/2 teaspoon)
God loves a cheerful giver.
