After a long day of playing super mom, I felt like I need a Martini and since we are in October, everywhere you turn, there’s something either scary, creepy or down right gross looking. So of course I had to make something in the spirit of Halloween.
For the apple heads
· 4 tiny firm apples
· 1/2 cup lemon juice - (to keep apples from browning)
· Peel, and halve apples lengthwise and remove seeds
· Sprinkle with lemon juice to keep from turning brown
· Using whatever tools you have; carve out the eye sockets, nose and mouth - I used my pumpkin carving kit which was perfect.
· Return finished carve apple to lemon juice until ready to use.
Making my drink
· 2 part cran-apple juice cocktail
· 1 part green apple twist vodka
· Shake together, Ice, cran-apple juice and vodka in cocktail shaker
· Pour into a martini glass and garnish with a spooky apple head
