Ingredients
3 drinks, as written.
- 2 cups apple cider
- 2 oz caramel vodka
- ¼ cup maple-vanilla syrup (below)
- Champagne, to top
- Caramel, sugar, and cinnamon, for the rims
In a martini glass
In a 28 oz shaker
A half gallon
Batch amounts are the mix before ice. Shake or stir each round with ice, or pour it over ice. A half gallon is the max-fill line on a Ninja SLUSHi.
Method
- Put sugar and cinnamon in a dish. Coat the rim of each glass with caramel, then with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Mix the water, maple syrup, and vanilla, and set it aside.
- Combine ¼ cup of the maple syrup mixture, the apple cider, and the vodka in a shaker with ice.
- Shake, and split it across 3 glasses.
- Top with Champagne.
From my notes
- Makes 2 to 3 martinis.
- This one came to the list without a name, so the name is a working title.
