This is a re-post but given that folks in Canada are celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend it seemed worthy. I can't think of a better drink to serve with your pre-dinner bites. It doesn't matter if you just have chips and dip or you have a platter of fancy hors d'oeuvres people will be happy to sip this.
It has those classic tastes of fall - apples . . . and it packs a kick! LOL
Years ago we were flying from Buffalo to California and we missed the connection in Cincinnati of all places. The hotel we were stranded in for the night was serving these in their bar. Ever since then this beverage has been shaken in our martini shaker on many a crisp fall evening.
Orchard Martini
1 1/2 oz vodka
3/4 oz sour apple liqueur (we use 'Pucker')
3 oz apple cider
Mix ingredients together with ice, shake. Pour into a martini glass. Garnish with an apple wedge or a thin cross-section slice of apple.
