Yield Makes two 6-ounce martinis

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup sugar
1 medium green apple (about 8 ounces), peeled (peels reserved)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 ounces best-quality vodka

Steps:

  • Bring sugar, 1 cup water, and 3/4 of the apple peel to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. (Reserve the remaining apple peel for garnish.) Cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Transfer syrup to a medium bowl set over an ice bath; let stand, stirring occasionally, until cool. Pour through a fine sieve into another bowl; discard solids.
  • Cut apple into chunks; press through an electric juicer into a small bowl. Pour through a fine sieve into another bowl; discard any solids, and set juice aside
  • Cut remaining peel into thin, 4-inch-long strips. Tie each strip into a knot; set aside in a bowl of water with lemon juice.
  • Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add vodka, 2 ounces syrup, and 1/3 cup apple juice; shake. Divide between 2 martini glasses; garnish with apple knots.

This martini is a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few leftover from making macarons, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in.

I found this martini to be a bit too strong. I think I would have preferred it with less gin.

This martini is a bit too sour for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a little less lime juice.
