Candy Apple Martini

A few months ago I finally gave in and now I have cable for my house. I got it mainly for the Disney channel that my daughter loves so much, and because I am a LOST junkie. Without cable I have to wait for the episodes to download online which is torture. Saturday night is my night to catch up on all the shows that I missed during the week, hooray for DVR! I made my bowl of popcorn, but I wanted something different to drink.....

Candy Apple Martini

1 ounce vodka**

1 ounce DeKuyper red apple liqueur

1/2 ounce DeKuyper buttershot butterscotch schnapps

1 ounce cranberry juice

Pour ingredients into a cocktail strainer 3/4 full of ice and shake vigorously.

Strain into a chilled martini glass.

I rimmed my martini glass with red colored sugar to keep with the candy apple theme,

and it is delicious!

** I used Beak & Skiff Apple Farm's NEW vodka made from apples. I will have more about this in tomorrow's blog.

Since not everyone has Beak & Skiff's vodka available to them- you can use any vodka you prefer. I suggest Stoli Gala Apple Vodka.

Cheers!
