#AppleWeek Day Five Recipes

Frosty Apple Cocktail

This cocktail was inspired by event sponsor Torani's product, Green Apple Puremade Syrup.* Quick note: this Puremade Syrup from Torani is a brand-new product; it will be released to customers shortly. I love that Torani Puremade Syrups contain: no artificial preservatives; no artificial colors; no artificial flavors; and no GMOs! I decided to use it in a cocktail as I would any other simple syrup.

Loosely inspired by The Last Word Cocktail, and an apple cocktail recipe I found that used Chartreuse and apple syrup, I concocted this Frosty Apple Cocktail for you all.

Ingredients makes 2 cocktails
  • 1-1/2 ounces gin
  • 1-1/2 ounces Chartreuse
  • 1-1/2 ounces apple syrup (prefer Torani)
  • 1- 1/2 ounces freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • sparkling water
  • Also needed: ice, cocktail shaker

Procedure

Place all ingredients - except for the sparkling water - to a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake until chilled, approximately 30 to 45 seconds.


Strain into two glasses and add sparkling water to taste.

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce
