THANKSGIVING MARTINIS! Fall Apple Jack Martini

The FALL APPLE JACK MARTINI is another whiskey based martini - like the Cranberry A Go-Go below only this time using apple as the flavor. This reminds me of Apple Jack - a liqueur distilled from apples - though I think the whiskey actually gives this a more complex flavor than Apple Jack.

This martini is perfect served with smoked cheeses and could be a nice Man Martini for those macho types who scoff at girly drinks, lol. It's sweet but it's got Jack Daniels in it - just lower the level of apple pucker and put more Jack in it - you won't hear any male grumbling at all.

I want to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! Have a wonderful holiday weekend and come back here the first of December for - woohoo - My CHRISTMAS MARTINIS!!

THANKSGIVING MARTINIS! Gingerbread Martini!

I have to admit the Gingerbread Man-A-Tini is my favorite Thanksgiving Martini - probably because it tastes just like my Mom's Gingersnap cookies! Those have been and will always be my favorite cookies ever but cookies take a lot more work than making this martini! What's really cool about this Gingerbread Martini is it's like getting the cookies and milk together!

But, just in case you have the time, here is my Mama's Ginger Snap Cookie Recipe (from the PopArtDiva Recipe Archives) - I prefer mine chewy so only bake them for 11 minutes:

THANKSGIVING MARTINIS! Cranberry Martini!

So, why do I call this the CRANBERRY A-GO-GO MARTINI? Because it's made with whiskey and my baby boomer brain immediately thought of the famous Whiskey A GO GO, the famous nightclub on The Strip (Sunset Blvd.) in L.A. The Whiskey opened in 1964 and most of the icons of Rock & Roll played there or wandered in at one time or another during it's heyday in the 60s and 70s. I know, the only thing that really has to do with martinis is both involve booze but that's how my brain rolls these days, lol.

That being said, if you're a Jack Daniels fan this Cranberry Martini is a perfect Thanksgiving cocktail for you! It brings in the cranberry element of Thanksgiving dinner in a whole new way!

Stop by The Diva of Tiny Foods for some great appetizers to go with your martinis! And if you're feeling the need for some retro pop culture or pop art swing by The PopArtDiva Blog for some trivia, history and other boomer brain spasms like the one above, lol.

THANKSGIVING MARTINIS! Candy Appled Martini

The Candy Appled Martini is a fun raspberry-apple flavored martini that uses apple vodka and sour apple pucker for a really nice apple kick. It's just like having a nice apple cider with a little holiday kick. I buy one of those soft candy apples and slice it up for a garnish - the hard coating apples don't slice up too great, lol.

I like to serve this with a small appetizer plate of smoked Gouda and some crackers - nothing too hearty or filling, especially if you're doing this just before your big Thanksgiving dinner.

Keep and eye out until Thanksgiving - I have 4 more Thanksgiving martinis to post including a Cranberry inspired one, another apple with Jack Daniels AND a Gingerbread martini!!!

Since Thanksgiving is just around the corner I figured it was time to post my Thanksgiving Martinis!

This one is THE PUMPKIN CREAM MARTINI which is made with Rum as the base alcohol. It's amazing how much this tastes like Pumpkin desserts! (I also have the Pumpkin Pie Martini which is vodka based and tastes just like a liquid pumpkin pie - I'll be posting that between now and Thanksgiving Day too!)
