About this recipe

If the Martini is “the only American invention as perfect as the sonnet”, according to author Henry Mencken, then the Appletini – or Apple Martini – is a piece of lyric verse, riffing on the exceptional simplicity of the Martini while adding a little flavour and colour. Vodka plus any kind of apple can be added: juice, brandy, cider or liqueur, and vermouth is optional. Or you can switch out vodka for rum to create the ‘Rumpletini’. But the recipe here blends caramel and Baileys Original Irish Cream for a liquid dessert take on the cocktail that’s delicious, sweet and tart. Whereas a standard Appletini can be either shaken or stirred – but ideally stirred – the Baileys Caramel Appletini should be shaken to mix the thick caramel and Baileys with the lighter vodka. A modern classic, the Appletini was created by Adam Karsten, a bartender at Lola’s in West Hollywood, California, combining vodka and apple juice. Not surprisingly it was originally known as the ‘Adam’s Apple Martini’ before its abbreviated moniker stuck. In the 2010 film The Social Network, the Appletini is shared by Facebook co-founders Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin and Napster co-founder Sean Parker. After he saw the film’s premiere, Zuckerberg made the Appletini the official Facebook cocktail. The Appletini also features in 2006 Jennifer Aniston film The Break Up, and in the recent CBS series Two and a Half Men (2003–2015) is the favourite drink of one of the main characters, Alan Harper. If any cocktail is a modern classic, it is the Appletini.
