CARAMEL APPLE PIE MARTINI



Caramel Apple Pie Martini image

I came up with this when I was in the mood for an apple pie martini, but I was out of vanilla vodka. These don't taste as boozy as they are, so they are kind of dangerous! This makes two large drinks or three if your glasses are small.

Provided by Vino Girl

Categories     Beverages

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 ounces skyy spiced vodka
3 ounces dekuyper sour apple pucker schnapps
2 ounces butterscotch schnapps
1 ounce Amaretto
1 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
1 tablespoon graham cracker crumbs (optional)
apple, slices (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine vodka, amaretto, and the 2 schnapps in a cocktail shaker with ice; shake until cold and blended.
  • Combine cinnamon, sugar, and cracker crumbs on a small plate.
  • Pour vanilla on another small plate and dip rims of two martini glasses.
  • Dip wet rims into the sugar mixture.
  • Pour the cold cocktail mixture into the glasses.
  • Garnish with an apple slice and a pinch of the leftover sugar mixture.
  • Alternatively instead of rimming the glasses, you can just mix the sugar and cinnamon together, and add a bit to each glass after pouring the drinks.

Tips for Making the Best Apple Martinis:

  • Use fresh apples: Fresh apples provide the best flavor for apple martinis. Look for crisp, juicy apples, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Choose a good quality vodka: The vodka you use will make a big difference in the taste of your apple martini. Opt for a smooth, high-quality vodka.
  • Make your own simple syrup: Simple syrup is easy to make and adds a touch of sweetness to your apple martini. To make simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir until the sugar has dissolved, then remove from heat and let cool.
  • Shake your apple martini well: Shaking your apple martini helps to combine the ingredients and create a frothy texture. Shake your martini for at least 10 seconds.
  • Garnish your apple martini with an apple slice or twist: A garnish adds a finishing touch to your apple martini and makes it look more festive.

Conclusion:

The apple martini is a classic cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart flavor, the apple martini is sure to please everyone. Whether you are a fan of traditional cocktails or you are looking for something new to try, the apple martini is a great choice. So next time you are in the mood for a delicious and refreshing cocktail, give the apple martini a try. You won't be disappointed!
