TAKE A SIP: SPARKLING CARAMEL APPLETINI

Okay my friends, it's officially time for HOLIDAY DRINKS!

I mean, not that any of these drinks coming up on the blog aren't good all year long..but..they're perfectly holiday party ready!

First up: Sparkling Caramel Appletini.

What you'll need to make it happen:

- 1.5 ounces vodka

-  Hard Cider (angry orchard preferred!)

- Caramel Sauce 

-Apple Slices (honeycrisp is best)

- Ice

How to make it happen:

Step 1: Swirl caramel sauce in the martini glass

Step 2: Shake ice & vodka until chilled & add to glass

Step 3: Top off with hard cider, stir, and garnish with an apple slice.

Step 4: Sip & enjoy!

Simple, right?

The caramel sweetness assures no bite from the vodka, and the fizz from the hard cider is an extra surprise!

What holiday drink are you making this season?

If you don't have a good one in your repertoire yet, make this one!

xo, lp
