Green Appletini #AppleWeek



This post is sponsored in conjunction with #AppleWeek . I received complimentary product from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the #AppleWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

This recipe is intended for those readers of legal drinking age for alcohol consumption.  Please drink responsibly.

Sweet, tart and refreshing this cocktail is like taking a bite of a crisp green apple.


Today is the 5th day of our Apple Week event.  We have been sharing amazing apple recipes all week long and since it is Friday, what better to share than a cocktail to start your weekend off.........

Camilla of Culinary Adventures with Camilla arranged this incredible event for you and wrangled a group of bloggers to celebrate all things apple. Apples, apples, and more apples!




Cam also arranged for sponsors to not only provide us with product to incorporate in our recipes but also to provide some amazing gifts for our readers to win.  You can learn all about this gifts and enter to win in my Welcome Post.


This nifty apple corer that I received from Zyliss is perfect for using when you want the core removed, the peel intact and the apple still whole.  This made making the garnish for my cocktail a breeze.  It is one of many gifts that you can win so hurry on over and enter the raffle.

Before I share this amazingly simple and yummy fall cocktail let's take a look at what the others are sharing today.......


This cocktail gets it's perfect Green Apple flavor from another of our sponsors, Torani Puremade Syrups.  Torani is giving away a six pack of their wonderful syrups.  I have been a long time fan of Torani syrups and was thrilled to find they were sponsoring Apple Week.  I'm telling you, you want to go enter that giveaway right now!!


Now that Indian Summer has disappeared and Fall is, once again, in the air, I intend to make up a batch of these to enjoy by a bonfire this weekend.  Whatever your weekend plans I hope you enjoy and stay safe.


Tomorrow I will be posting my final Apple Week recipe and it is a good one.  Tomorrow is also the last day to enter to win one of the great prizes from our generous sponsors so don't procrastinate any longer.  Go enter to win!!  Go and I will quit nagging at you!
