Cursed Apple Martini (Ready-to-Print Version)

A glittering mix of apple vodka, cider, and gold glitter for a festive, enchanting drink experience.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Liquors

01 - 2 fl oz apple vodka
02 - 1 fl oz unfiltered apple cider
03 - 0.5 fl oz triple sec orange liqueur

→ Syrups and Garnishes

04 - 0.5 fl oz grenadine syrup
05 - 0.25 tsp edible gold glitter
06 - Honey (for glass rim)
07 - Edible gold glitter (for rim garnish)

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Pour a thin layer of honey onto a plate and gently roll the rim of a chilled martini glass in the honey until evenly coated. Dip the honey-coated rim into edible gold glitter on a separate plate to create a shimmering golden border. Chill the glass again to set the garnish.
02 - In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add apple vodka, unfiltered apple cider, triple sec, grenadine syrup, and 0.25 teaspoon edible gold glitter. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds to blend and chill while dispersing the glitter evenly.
03 - Double strain the mixture through a standard strainer and fine mesh sieve into the prepared martini glass to achieve a smooth texture and showcase the shimmer. Serve immediately to preserve freshness and visual appeal.

# Handy Tips:

01 - Allow honey on the rim to settle for 30 seconds before applying glitter to ensure a crisp and durable gold coating that won’t drip.
02 - Use a high-quality edible glitter specifically formulated for beverages to avoid bitterness and clumping.
03 - Chill glass, shaker, and ingredients prior to mixing to maintain cocktail crispness and prolong glitter suspension.
04 - Double straining removes ice shards for a polished and visually clear martini.
