Ingredients
-
4 oz. Vanilla Stoli Vodka
-
1 Tbsp. Honey Syrup-see notes
-
2 oz. Pressed apple juice
-
1 oz. Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
-
2 Apple slices for garnish
Honey Syrup
-
1/2 C. 100% Raw Honey
-
1/2 C Water
-
1 Cinnamon Stick
Directions
Honey Syrup (suggest to make ahead of time)
Place water, honey, and cinnamon stick in a small sauce pan over medium heat.
Bring to a simmer for 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat and let steep for 10 minutes.
Once cooled, pour into an air tight container or mason jar and store in refrigerator for 1-2 weeks.
Assembly
Place all ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake well.
Strain into a coupe glass and garnish each glass with a fresh apple slice.
Apple Garnish
Take a whole apple and slice it through the middle from the side to side to get a star shape where seeds are in the middle of your slice.
Slice again about a 1/8" thin slice and repeat.
Remove seeds from both slices.
Make a single cut into each piece about half way into the middle so you can easily lace them on the edge of your glasses.
Recipe Note
Your honey syrup is also perfect for adding to your afternoon tea.
