Appletini cocktail recipe

Step 1

To a cocktail shaker, add lemon juice, cloudy apple juice, apple liqueur and vodka.

Step 2

Add ice, shake and strain into a coupe or martini glass.

Step 3

Garnish with a slice of apple or, if you’re feeling fancy, an apple fan.

Step 4

Add a bit of height to your cocktail with an apple fan. To make it, cut off one side of your apple so you’ve got a nice cheek of fruit. Place the cheek flesh-side down, then cut into thin, even slices, leaving just the last few millimetres intact. Then simply fan out the pieces to create this extravagant drink topper. If you’re having a tough time keeping the base intact, go ahead and slice all the way through, then just use a toothpick or clove to secure the slices at the bottom.
