Poison Apple Cocktail

Make this Poison Green Apple Martini your signature cocktail for your next Halloween party. The lime green color, tart apple flavor, and creepy black sugar rim will set the mood. Whether you’re planning a big party or a chilling night in, this drink is sure to leave your guests spellbound!

How to Rim a Cocktail Glass:

I found these fun green-tinted martini glasses at Deals and could not wait to use them.

• Sprinkle black and green sprinkles into a shallow dish.
• Coat the rim of the martini glass in the Karo syrup.
• Dip the rim in the sprinkles.

Ingredients:

For the cocktail, I used one ounce of Gray Goose Vodka. It’s a pricier vodka, but it’s my preferred choice. I am picky about my drinks. Any vodka will work, though. Next, I used one ounce of Sour Apple Liquor and half an ounce of Cointreau. Next, I added one ounce of freshly squeezed Lime juice.

Instructions:

1. Add 4-5 ice cubes to the cocktail shaker, then all ingredients.
2. Place the lid on the cocktail shaker, pressing to seal, and shake vigorously until the shaker is very cold to the touch, about 12-15 seconds.
3. Strain into a martini glass.
