Bling Platinum Apple Martini Disposable Vape Review

Bling Platinum Apple Martini is a great new twist on the old classic drink. The cocktail revival of the past two decades has been a history of bartenders correcting bad practices and misunderstood cocktails, and the martini is a perfect case study. The craft-cocktail community rejected the syrupy horrors of ’90s martinis, but today’s wide range of vermouths and sherries allows for an array of variegated variations on the theme.

Ingredients

The apple martini, also known as the appletini, is a sweet and simple vodka cocktail. It requires only a few ingredients and can be made in minutes. There are many variations of the drink, so experiment with different flavors and garnishes to find your favorite. Choose a citrus or pear-flavored vodka for a refreshing variation. Or try a caramel-flavored vodka for a dessert-like drink. Alternatively, you can use Calvados (apple brandy) or apple cider for a more authentic drink.

The original appletini only uses three ingredients — vodka, Sour Apple Pucker, and simple syrup. Sour Apple Pucker is a flavoring that is added to clear grain spirits, like vodka. It was introduced in 1996 by DeKuyper as part of their Puckers line of flavors. The drink contains only 1 ounce of hard alcohol, making it a low-proof cocktail. If you would like a slightly more sophisticated version of the drink, swap out the sour apple pucker for Triple Sec or Cointreau.

Directions

A bright green apple martini, or appletini, is a sweet and refreshing cocktail that’s easy to make and perfect for celebrations. It comes together quickly and requires only a few ingredients that are readily available at your local liquor store.

Fill a cocktail shaker three-fourths full with ice cubes and add the vodka, apple liqueur and lemon juice. Cap and shake for about 10-15 seconds or until condensation forms on the outside of the shaker. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass. If desired, garnish with an apple slice.

The alcoholic content in this recipe is a little higher than most martinis because of the addition of apple schnapps. To lower the alcohol content and reduce the calorie count, you can use a less-premium vodka and omit the apple liqueur. To add more flavor, you can substitute a different apple flavored schnapps or even try adding cinnamon sugar syrup to the mix for a caramel apple martini!

Variation

The apple martini (or just an appletini) is a celebrity among cocktails. It circles through pop culture, showing up in movies and tv shows. Its color is as alluring as its tart apple flavor that hits you from the first sip. This cocktail is very simple and easy to make and can be served in a variety of ways. For a sweeter version, use caramel flavored vodka and substitute demerara syrup for the simple syrup. For a dry apple martini use calvados and omit the simple syrup. This drink is a great cocktail to serve at parties, showers and other events.
