Red Appletini (Crown Royal Apple Martini)
"A non-girly apple martini! The Crown Royal makes this really smooth so if you must substitute, be sure to use another premium whisky."

Now tell me? How did a drink mysteriously find its way into my hand? -
Very nice! Decided I wanted something today aside from my usual Cap'n and Dew (hey, it's good, honest!) and I found this. It's very tasty as written, and nearly as good with double the cranberry juice. I'd be on the floor passed out after three of these if I didn't add more lol. Thanks Vino Girl! -
Only the girls liked this one! Too sweet for ost of the guys. Changed the amounts, though, to 12 servings, put it in a pitcher, and chilled. -
I've had these when I've been out and wanted to duplicate them. This was perfect. Thank you! -
The bar near my house calls this one a "Washington Red Apple" and it is served as a shooter, not a martini. Either way, though, it's the same ingredients in the same proportions - and it tastes great. I prefer mine shaken with lots of ice to make it really cold, and served on the rocks in a small glass. Yum.

My husband and I married straight out of college in July of 1992. I work as the Assistant Manager at a wine shop which allows me to drink on the job! (OK, not that much, but it's still a fun job...) Besides helping customers choose wine they will like (and also help with food and wine pairings for their menus), I also get to help with the catering end of the business, so I get to spend a fair amount of time in the kitchen making fun appetizers and beautiful food displays. I also work part-time at the fromagerie next door. So yeah - that means I eat on the job, too. :^D
We live on several peaceful wooded acres on a cute little river in rural NE Wisconsin, with a cranky old-lady Burmese and whatever stray outdoor cats that have decided to adopt us on any given day. The cute puppy in the picture is Jake, our Elhew-bred English Pointer that we brought home on Easter weekend 2007. I've also got 2 painted turtles named Dennis and Fuzz, and a bunch of fish (koi and goldfish, along with the guppies & swordtails in the turtle tank).
I USUALLY eat and cook healthy, but I rarely pass up dessert, either. I do not eat red meat, and try to limit other animal products, too. I love to bake, although I seem to collect a lot of scone and biscotti recipes which I NEVER get around to making. I bake and eat A LOT of cookies and muffins... I almost always reduce the sugar by 1/4 and use whole wheat pastry flour for at least part of the flour. Those two changes do so much to make recipes healthier without compromising taste. I try to reduce fat whenever I can, too, but while I want to eat healthy, I still want to ENJOY what I eat!!!
I seem to give a lot of 4 and 5 star reviews here - I seem to have a pretty good sense of what I like by looking at a recipe before I try it. Thank you to anyone that tries my recipes in return, or photographs them.
