Let's be honest, appletinis are delicious. What's not to love about a drink that combines the crisp taste of apple juice with the smoothness of vodka? Plus, they're super easy to make. Just mix together some apple juice, lemon juice, apple schnapps, and vodka, and you're good to go.
The appletini was originally created in 1996 at Lola's West Hollywood restaurant, but it has since become a popular favorite among people of all ages.
So whether you're looking for something to sip on at happy hour or wanting to add a little extra flavor to your next party, be sure to give the appletini a try—you won’t be disappointed.
In a cocktail shaker, pour the lemon and apple juice. Shake it thoroughly for a few seconds.
Add the vodka and the apple schnapps and fill the shaker with ice—fill it halfway with ice. Shake it well.
Strain the mixture into a martini glass. Garnish your drink with an apple slice if you want.
Recipe Note
You can also garnish your appletini with a green apple slice that's brushed with fresh lemon juice. However, you can also do a green apple fan garnish—slice a green apple into thin wedges, then fan them around inside the glass before pouring the mixture.
