The shift toward marketing cereals directly at children signaled the growing recognition of children's influence on family purchases. The slogan for this campaign became "We eat what we like". Starting in 1992, there was an advertising campaign that featured children expressing their enjoyment of Apple Jacks, regardless of its lack of apple flavor.
During this time, the Apple Jacks jingle became an integral part of the ad campaign: "A is for apple, J is for Jacks, Cinnamon-toasty Apple Jacks!" This campaign was retired in 1992. Their reign lasted for 21 years, making them the most well-known Apple Jacks mascots and most universally associated with the cereal in the public's memory. The commercials featured the children singing and tumbling around all day. In the late 1960s the box depicted an "Apple Car" with pieces of cereal for wheels.Īround 1971, the official mascots became "The Apple Jacks Kids", a simplistically drawn animated boy and girl. The first Apple Jacks mascot in the 1960s was "Apple Guy", a figure made from cutting a face onto an apple and applying a hat and pieces of cereal for eyes. Īpple Jacks were later released in Australia and can be found at Woolworths Supermarkets and Aldi, alongside Kellogg's Australia's Apple Jacks LCMs, a puffed rice snack bar with marshmallow flavour and Apple Jacks flavoured sprinkles. In 2001, Apple Jacks was brought to Canada in a Limited Edition box. The latest (limited) edition, in 2010, are Apple Clones, with red pieces shaped like apples. More recently, Apple Jacks has introduced New Apple Jacks "Crashers" – a unique cereal piece that replicates a mid-2007 advertising campaign when mascots Apple and CinnaMon were accidentally fused together. In a marketing promotion in December 2003, the green pieces changed their shape to X's for a few months. Originally, the Apple Jacks were only orange and O-shaped, until 1998 when the green O-shapes were added to the cereals. The product is described by Kellogg's as a "crunchy, sweetened multi-grain cereal with apple and cinnamon." Apple Jacks is one of the top four cereal brands marketed within stores and is most heavily marketed on Kellogg's internet platform. In 1971 the name "Apple Jacks" was put into action by advertisers. as "Apple O's" in 1965 after being invented by college intern William Thilly. Okay, now I gotta go make me one of these because it’s 5 o’clock RIGHT HERE and I can’t take it anymore.Kellogg's Apple Jacks – Sweetened Cereal with Apple & Cinnamon, with milkĪpple Jacks is an American brand of breakfast cereal that is produced by Kellogg's. I’d compare it most to sweeter, chilled whiskey with citrusy, orange characteristics. The true old fashioned cocktail is not sweet, it also shouldn’t have more than an orange peel in it (no pulp). It’s meant to help balance out the cocktail and add flavor. The oils from the peel add a lot more flavor and aroma than you may think. It’s simply not the same cocktail without it. Don’t Skip the Orange Peelĭon’t underestimate the power of the orange peel in an old fashioned. True flavors and aroma of fall in every sip. My personal final touch is the cinnamon stick-it completes the Fall circle of maple, orange, apple, and cinnamon. Lastly, it’s garnished with an orange peel. This cocktail used whiskey barrel-aged bitters or black walnut bitters in place of your typical Angostura bitters, which gives the drink more of an oaky flavor. Maple syrup is used in place of sugar or simple syrup (which is essentially sugar water), to infuse it with darker natural maple and vanilla flavors.
It has very subtle notes of apple and cinnamon spice (and it’s actually made with fresh apples). The secret ingredient is Laird’s Applejack brandy (There is no real substitute in my eys). The Fall old fashioned tastes exactly how you’d expect it would. What kind of food blogger would I be if I hadn’t experimented with the “fall special?” Building The Ultimate Fall Whiskey Cocktail The “fall special” or the traditional old fashioned. I requested an old fashioned and to no surprise, I was presented with two options. So you could say he “passes the bar.” Pun 100% intended.Īfter Thanksgiving dinner, we decided to have some post-turkey coma cocktails. He was actually a bartender in Boston for a few years while he was in law school. Fred is a true cocktail guy so he makes cocktails by the book. The fall old fashioned was introduced to me by my brother-in-law, Fred. The Applejack old fashioned is a seasonal spin on the classic old fashioned cocktail.
