Apple Pie Sour Martini Recipe

City Gate Spirits Apple Pie Sour Martini

Sugar, spice, and shine that is nice. Our Apple Pie Sour Martini is a zesty spin on the standard Sour.

A traditional Whiskey Sour delicately balances bright lemon juice, warming whiskey, and just enough simple syrup to round out the edges. For our take on this classic, we swapped whiskey for our best-selling Apple Pie Moonshine. Using a ginger syrup for an added bite, our Apple Pie Sour is tangy and warm at the same time.

Whip this martini up for a flavorful, warming after-dinner drink. Draw out the fresh and tart lemon notes with a citrus sugar rim.
