Science Of Drink

Ideal concoction for hot summer days is Frozen Cocktails, particularly Frozen Margaritas. Actually, my favorite Ultimate Margarita I prefer only straight up, but its fruit sisters are great frozen.

Frozen Melon Margarita

45 ml tequila
30 ml Midori melon liqueur
60 ml sweet and sour mix
Blend with appropriate quantity of ice until smooth. Serve in margarita glass. Garnish with lime wheel.

De facto, it is my first frozen cocktail. It has pure-like consistence and it is ice-cold. Great smooth and light cocktail.

Frozen Watermelon Margarita

45 ml tequila
30 ml watermelon liqueur
60 ml sweet and sour mix
Blend with appropriate quantity of ice until smooth. Serve in margarita glass. Garnish with lime wheel.

The Watermelon Margarita is very popular cocktail among my guests. Frozen version is great too. Bright and delicious cocktail.

Frozen Apple Margarita

45 ml tequila
30 ml apple liqueur (or schnapps)
60 ml sweet and sour mix
Blend with appropriate quantity of ice until smooth. Serve in margarita glass. Garnish with lime wheel.

Frozen Apple Margarita is admirable cocktail. It has smooth and little sour apple taste. Great!

I don`t think that Apple Martini Cocktail is interesting cocktail. But this cocktail is great concoction for some party, for example for New Year party.

This my favorite recipe of Apple Martini Cocktail (From The Joy of Mixology by Gary Regan)

Apple Martini

50 ml vodka (or gin)
25 ml apple schnapps
splash of fresh lemon juice (optional)
Stir (or shake). Cocktail glass, garnish with an apple pieces.

I don`t like gin for my Apple Martini. My choice - is vodka. As we now vodka is tasteless alcogol. Apple Martini cocktail with vodka has crisp sweet apple taste and smell. I obtained very good results with Marie Brizard Manzanita (Licor de Manzana Verde). You may add lemon juice for little sour taste if it is preferable for you.

Apple Martini Cocktail has somу variations. My favorite are:

Sour Green Apple Martini

50 ml vodka
25 ml apple schnapps
splash of Midori
splash of fresh lime juice
Shake. Cocktail glass. Garnish with a green apple slice.

This coctail has amazing greenish colour and sweet candy apple taste.

Classic Apple Martini

35 ml vodka
35 ml apple schnapps
splash of dry vermouth
Shake. Cocktail glass. Garnish with an apple slice.

The taste of dry vermouth work well with apple taste of MB Manzanita. This cocktail has interesting apple taste.

This cocktail I was found in promotional book of Finlandia Vodka. This cocktail is great festive concoction.

Finlandia Red Caramel Apple Martini

50 ml Finlandia Cranberry Fusion vodka
25 ml green apple schnapps
5 ml butterscotch schnapps
Shake vigorously and strain into chilled martini glass. Garnish with a caramel cube and an apple slice.

Admirable! Happy New Year!

This “martini” style cocktail has apple smell and  light taste. Sometimes I like drink this kind after nervous day.

Black Apple Martini

30 ml canadian whisky
20 ml apple schapps
40 ml cranberry juice
Shake. Cocktail glass.

Admirable!
