After I posted my Thanksgiving menu, I got an email inbox surge with requests for recipes. The most requested? Definitely the caramel apple cocktail. Hmm. I wonder what that says about my readers?
I went ahead and practiced the technique pre-Thanksgiving. You know. For research purposes. It was strictly business.
I’m happy to report that the drink is quite tasty indeed. While it has a touch of sweetness, it’s not sickeningly so (like Reisling – blech!). You can certainly pick up the apple. In fact, it’s quite reminiscent of one of the real things. Enjoy.
Caramel Apple Cocktail
Ingredients:
scant 1/2 c. apple cider
2 1/2 T. butterscotch schnapps
dash of cinnamon sugar
sparkling wine
Directions:
Mix apple cider and butterscotch schnapps and cinnamon sugar in an ice-filled martini shaker. Shake vigorously. Pour into a cinnamon-sugar rimmed low ball glass. Fill with sparkling wine (we used Prosecco). Garnish as desired. Please drink responsibly ;)
I am so making this. And I am not even waiting for Thanksgiving.
I’m making this too. I might have to test it before serving it on Thanksgiving :)
That does sound rather tasty
Thanks for posting the recipe!
I think we will have to give it a try.
Thank you!
Yum….delish!
Oh, refreshing! We’re having cranberry margaritas.
Sitting at work reading this…I could use one (or two, or three) of these right now! LOL!
You’ve been pinned. ;)
Sounds delicious! I might have to make this one….
