Freshly juiced apple martinis will absolutely get any party started, whether that be private or public. Hands down, there is not a better apple martini out there and I have drank plenty of them. This was an experiment one Saturday evening. I took one sip of this and I fell head over heels for Granny Smith!

Serves about 4 moderate drinkers, but you might as well double up. I have the feeling people will be asking for seconds. You will need a professional juicer for this. I have had good luck with the Breville juicer.

• 4 Granny Smith apples (or something equally as tart)
• 8 shots of a decent vodka, chilled
• Raw, natural sugar

I go ahead and juice 3 of the apples. I chill the juice for about a half hour. I pour the juice through a filter, cheesecloth or paper towel to remove all the impurities. I take the fourth apple and cut very thin slices from it. I take a nice pinch of sugar and two shots of vodka. I mix well. Grab a nice martini glass. Pour the vodka mixture in and top with the fresh apple juice. Add a slice of apple for the top and serve. Repeat for each “drank” you want to make.

Ridiculously simple, yet powerful.
