A Better-for-You Appletini

09/07/12

The booze-infused juice and smoothie trend has hit New York City and I, for one, am right on board! While speciality bars and drinks are showing up around the city, why not bring the refreshments home?

Watch the video below to see how to make a better-for-you Appletini with a freshly-juiced Granny Smith apple.


How to Cut Apples for Drinks —powered by eHow.com

Better-for-you Appletini (makes 2 cocktails)

2 oz vodka
¼ tsp fresh lime juice
1-2 green apples, juiced
splash of club soda

Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice, pour into martini glasses and garnish with an apple.

To make the apple garnish:

Cut an apple in half then cut each half into slices about 1/8 of an inch thick. Make a diagonal cut into the apple slice with a paring knife so it can be perched on the martini glass.

Both were family/kid-friendly and brought us out to the most stunning beaches: Elizabeth A. Morton National Wildlife Refuge (Sag Harbor) and Shadmoor State Park (Montauk) 💚💋🥾

Three Summers ago my family and I came to Chicago Three Summers ago my family and I came to Chicago and there wasn't so much as a matcha cafe in sight. Now, so much matcha, so little time. Swipe through for my thoughts in each caption. 💚💋🍵

The cafe itself had the cutest decor. The matcha had no flavor and all I could taste was the almond milk. 

Refreshing and not too sweet. The blueberry lemonade was the overarching flavor followed by the more bitter matcha. Perfect balance. 

Just a strawberry matcha. Nothing special and not the best I've had. 

This was an authentic Japanese spot with a premium matcha experience. They hand whisk it in front of you  and explain how they make it. I picked up a few tips. The matcha was authentic and rich. Only oat and whole milk options. 

Hand whisking and explaining the process in detail. 

Not a huge fan on oat milk in matcha because I think it overpowers the flavor. Overall, this was the most authentic like you'd get in Japan. 

Tbh, this was a basic coffee shop matcha but I loved the coffee shop itself. I made the mistake of agreeing that the syrup which was a sweetener. I don't like sweetened matcha so that knocked a star off. 

The most underwhelming of all. Drinkable but basic. Not bad, but I had too many other really good ones to measure against. 

This place has it all. The vibe, tbe energy, the neighborhood, the creative drinks, the community and a nice staff. 

This was the most delicious matcha I would give this place 1000 stars if I could. 

The place was bustling but they kept it moving and the staff was friendly despite the crowds and heavy drink orders. 

An authentic matcha experience with a modern edge. Seriously the best matcha and experience I've had at a matcha cafe.
