Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.92 / 5
The Apple Pie cocktail, served in a lowball glass, captures the quintessential flavors of its namesake dessert through the use of apple schnapps as its core ingredient. This sweet and fruity cocktail evokes the classic taste of an apple pie by integrating the crisp and refreshing essence of apples along with a hint of spice, typically reminiscent of cinnamon, although it's noted that cinnamon schnapps is not included in the recipe. Garnished with a fresh slice of apple and a sprinkle of cinnamon, it offers a simple yet delightful combination that can be enjoyed in any season but may be particularly cozy during autumn or winter months.

FAQ's

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute apple schnapps with something else in an Apple Pie cocktail?

If you don't have apple schnapps, you can substitute it with apple cider or apple juice for a non-alcoholic version but note that this will significantly alter the flavor and alcohol content. For an alcoholic version, apple-flavored vodka can be a closer substitute, though it may alter the taste slightly.
