Drink of the Day: Irish Apple Martini

March 11, 2015 | By | 1 Comment

Good day, my friends! Hard to believe we are less than a week away from St.Patrick’s Day! Where is the time going this year? I better get moving and start showing you some cocktails that you can share with your friends this coming holiday.

If you are into shooters, this one will look kind of familiar to you. If you are a fan of Washington Apple Shooters, this is pretty much it, replacing the Crown Royal with Irish Whiskey and using white cranberry juice instead of red. A surprisingly smooth drink that you may think about having two of. Just remember when imbibing these types of cocktails: One is not enough…. two is too many…. three is not enough. Be sure to keep it responsible when enjoying. These go down very smooth and it is easy to get carried away.

I hope your mid-week is looking good. We are on the downside of the work week, folks, with Friday in site. Don’t get too caught up on looking forward to the weekend, though. Enjoy today! Cheers!
