The apple martini, also known as an appletini, is a sweet and delicious cocktail with a vodka base. Recipes most often use vodka but are quite diverse depending on different approaches. The sweetness of apple schnapps varies depending on the brand, so the lemon juice amount in the recipe should be adjusted accordingly. Citrus and pear flavor are two nice options that go with the apple flavor, but a non-fruity vodka like a caramel-flavored one would be an excellent match.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 ounces vodka
- 1/2 ounce green apple schnapps
- 1/4 ounce lemon juice
- Apple slice, for garnish
