Appletini Cocktail Recipe
I'm really excited to share a fun and tasty Appletini cocktail recipe! This delightful drink blends the sweet and tangy taste of green apples with a bit of vodka for a refreshing and colorful cocktail. 🍏🍸 Perfect for a night in or a small get-together with friends!
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker: To mix everything thoroughly and chill the drink.
- Strainer: This helps in pouring the smooth liquid into the glass.
- Measuring tool: A jigger works great for this.
- Martini glass: The classic way to serve an Appletini.
Ingredients
The Appletini's charm lies in its simple ingredients. For a single drink, you’ll need:
- 2 oz of vodka: The base spirit that gives a nice kick.
- 1 oz of sour apple schnapps: Adds that tangy apple flavor.
- 0.5 oz of apple juice: Enhances the fruity taste.
- Optional: Lemon juice or an apple slice for garnish.
Each item serves a key role. Vodka provides the punch, while the schnapps and apple juice create the apple taste we love.
Instructions
Making an Appletini is a snap! Here’s how I do it:
- Fill the shaker: Add ice to chill your drink.
- Combine ingredients: Pour vodka, apple schnapps, and apple juice into the shaker.
- Shake well: Ensure all ingredients mix nicely and chill for a refreshing taste.
- Strain: Pour the mix into a martini glass using your strainer.
- Garnish: Add a splash of lemon juice or a slice of apple to make it pop.
Mixing takes just a few minutes, and the result is a refreshing, tart drink that's hard to resist!
Notes
Here are a few tips I’ve found helpful for the perfect Appletini:
Experiment with the ratio of schnapps and apple juice for different sweetness levels.
If you like it extra cold, chill your martini glass before pouring the drink.
Try using high-quality vodka. It could really make a difference in taste.
Feel free to get creative with garnishes like a sugared rim!
