Re: Does anyone have a fall martini or other drink recipe?
I love mulled cider! An option might be to toss in some apple brandy or rum for a "spiked" kick.
I usually throw apple cider with some cinnamon sticks in a crockpot and leave a captain morgan's bottle nearby so people can spike their own cider to the level they want (or not at all).
I have also made something called klug(sp?) wine. Its a mulled wine with fruit and spices. I've done that in the crockpot or on the stove. I don't remember the recipe I used but if you goolge that you should find some.
Pumpkin Pie Martini:
Ice cubes 2 ounces (1/4 cup) vanilla vodka 2 ounces (1/4 cup) cr?me de cacao 1/4 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice Whipped cream, for garnishMy little nuggets
I make a Pumpkin Pie Martini - it is a huge hit in the fall!
Pumpkin Vodka:
Mix one bottle of vanilla vodka with one can of pumpkin, cover in an air tight container and refridgerate for 24-28 hours. Strain (will take several hours to really get all the liquids out), pressing on solids to get as much vodka as possible. Keep pumpkin vodka refridgerated.
Mix 3 oz pumpkin vodka, 1 oz Vanilla Schnapps, 2 oz Fat-Free Half and Half (or cream or whole milk), and 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice in a shaker w/ ice, Serve Cold. You can rim the glass in cinnamon and sugar blend as well.
How about a Caramel Apple Martini:
2 parts butterscotch schnapps
2 parts sour apple schnapps
1 part vodka
You could even rim the glass with melted caramel first.
This is my mom's recipe, I made it for my FIL and they loved it! Not exactly traditional but idc.
