Apple Tart & Apple Pie Martini
Apple Tart & Apple Pie Martini, a deliciously comforting and festive duo! The tart features a flaky, buttery crust filled with sweet, lemon-zested apples, making it the perfect dessert for fall or holiday gatherings. The sugar-sprinkled crust adds a delightful crunch, and serving it with ice cream or custard elevates the warm, spiced flavors. While the Apple Pie Martini uses sweet apple cider, vodka, and sour apple schnapps, all garnished with cinnamon-sugar rims. It's a fun and flavorful cocktail that echoes the classic dessert's essence but with a boozy twist. Perfect for sipping alongside the apple tart.
