Etymology

The term 'applejack' has its origins in American colonial times, where apple cultivation became widespread. The drink's name is derived from the fermented apple cider and its production methods. Early settlers discovered that freezing the cider could effectively increase its alcohol content, leading to the creation of applejack as a strong and flavorful alternative to other spirits. The character from 'My Little Pony' emerged in the 1980s and gained popularity with the revival of the series, bringing a new cultural meaning to the term.
