Bartending For Dummies, 3rd Edition
Apple Drinks for Adults
Adapted From: Bartending For Dummies, 3rd Edition

Celebrate apple season with this trio of decidedly adult mixed drinks -- and leave the apple cider for the kids.

Apple Kir

1 oz. Jose Cuervo Gold Tequila

1/2 oz. Crème de Cassis

1 oz. apple juice

1 tsp. fresh lemon juice

Mix in a rocks glass over ice. Garnish with a lemon wedge.

Apple Pie

1/2 oz. Apple Schnapps

1/2 oz. vodka

1/2 oz. pineapple juice

Dash of powdered cinnamon

Shake with ice and strain into a shot glass.

Appletini

2 parts DeKuyper Pucker Sour Apple

2 parts VOX Vodka

Shake with ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with an apple slice.

Finally, don't forget apple brandy, served straight up in a snifter: Applejack is produced in the United States, while Calvados is made from a variety of apples from northwestern France.
