The Candied Apple Martini (I call it the Candy Appled Martini just to be contrary) is the first of my five Thanksgiving Martinis I'll be posting from now until the day before Thanksgiving.
This is inspired from those hard shelled candy apples we used to get during the fall back in Kansas. Most candied apples are cinnamon flavored but the ones we had were raspberry flavored and I loved them. Sadly, I've never found them anywhere again but at least I can enjoy the flavors in this martini!
Many other "candy apple recipes" call for butterscotch schnapps but those end up tasting more like a caramel apple to me, not a candied apple! I have a ton of caramel apple martinis as well but caramel apples are more Halloween to me than Thanksgiving - though I love them anytime I can get my hands on one.
This is a powerful martini and it's all alcohol so it's a smaller martini - perfect for a 4.5 ounce martini glass
. Enjoy and come back through Thanksgiving for the rest of my Thanksgiving cocktails.
