sour appletini cocktail/mocktail recipe

This deliciously refreshing drink is perfect for celebrating with green during the month of March and is a fun way to dance into notes of Spring. It only takes a few ingredients and is quick and easy to make when you want to enjoy crisp and sweet apple flavors in a traditional martini form.

Serves 1

I N G R E D I E N T S

---

· 2.5 oz (5 tbsp) of vodka

· 1.75 oz (3.5 tbsp) of sour apple pucker liqueur (sour apple schnapps works well too!)

· .25 oz (.5 tbsp) lemon juice

· .5 oz (1 tbsp) of triple sec (or simple syrup)

for the rim

· 1 lemon

· 1 cup white sugar

· 2 drops of green food coloring

(you could also just use Apple Cocktail Sugar if you wanted to purchase that instead!)

Want to make it a Mocktail?

Replace the vodka with Apple Juice and the Sour Apple Pucker with Granny Smith Apple Syrup

*you probably won’t need the triple sec or simple syrup in this mocktail version due to the sweetness of apple juice and the apple syrup*
