For adults who grew up loving Affy Tapple, try shaking up a caramel apple martini inspired by our Original Peanut Caramel Apple. This cocktail tastes just like biting into a crisp caramel apple, but with a little kick!
Yields 1 Martini
INGREDIENTS
- 1 oz apple vodka
- 1 oz vanilla vodka
- 2 oz apple cider
- 1 T caramel syrup
- 1 squeeze of fresh lemon juice
- 1 T chopped unsalted peanuts
- 1 T caramel sauce (the thicker, typically jarred variety)
PREPARATION
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the apple vodka, vanilla vodka, apple cider, caramel syrup and lemon juice. Cover and shake for 20 seconds or so until mixed and chilled. Spread the unsalted peanuts on a small plate and the caramel sauce on another small plate. Dip the rim of your martini glass in the caramel sauce and then press into the peanuts to create a coating of caramel and peanuts around the rim of the glass. Strain the martini into the glass. Enjoy!
Optional: Garnish with a slice of an Affy Tapple Original Peanut Caramel Apple
