Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox cocktail
An apple martini (appletini for short) is a cocktail containing vodka and one or more of apple juice, apple cider, apple liqueur, or apple brandy.
It is not a true martini, but is one of many drinks that incorporate the term martini into their names.
This drink, originally called an Adam's Apple Martini because the bartender who created it was named Adam, was created in 1996 at Lola's West Hollywood restaurant.[1][2]
The drink Adam's Apple was advertised by Smirnoff in the July 1972 issue of Playboy on the inside front cover. The recipe called for an ounce or so of Smirnoff added to apple juice in a tall glass of ice.
Recipe
In its purest form, it would contain:
- 4 cl (Шаблон:Frac oz) top shelf vodka (or gin)
- 2 cl (Шаблон:Frac oz) apple juice, cider or, most often, apple pucker
Typically, the ingredients are shaken or stirred and then strained into a cocktail glass.
Variations
A sweet and sour mix can also be added before shaking.
Optionally, vermouth may be included, as in a regular martini.
A common variation of the appletini is the "Rumpletini," with a light rum in place of the vodka.Шаблон:Citation needed
A similar cocktail can be made with Martini Bianco white vermouth and apple juice in a long drink glass filled with ice.[3]
