I tried the Apple Martini! I did, I did! I ordered it at my cousins wedding and actually started a trend with the wedding party. After I ordered first (since everyone was shy to order), everyone took my lead.The drinks arrived, took my first sip and woe-wee it was strong. I wasn't the only one thinking so either. I finished the drink, but I didn't enjoy it. I'm not sure if it was the brand of vodka or maybe too much, but I will try it again at another location. I will not give up on the Apple-tini!
So, I ordered a few Kahlua and Milks that evening after my experimentation with the apple-tini. While I was sitting at the head table with my new friend, Eva who was in the wedding party too, she asked if I had tried a Scooby Snack drink. I slowly shook my head no thinking back did I ever try one, but to my knowledge I haven't tried one or even heard it. So, she told me what was in it and I said, bring it on.
The recipe for "Scooby Snack" is -
Serve in a Collins Glass
1 oz Malibu Coconut Rum
1 oz Midori Melon Liqueur
1/2 oz Pineapple Juice
1/2 oz Whipped Cream
Pour ingredients over ice in a cocktail shaker. Shake until blended, pour into a rocks or old-fashioned glass, and serve.
While Eva explained to the waitress what was in it, she requested that all three liquids be equal amounts (instead of 1/2 oz pineapple juice, make it a 1 oz) and we didn't have whipped cream.
Well, the first sip had a kick too it and a little getting used to all those different flavors together, but overall, it is definitely something worth trying. I might order it out sometime, but I wouldn't put it on my lists of drinks that I have to have when the moment is right. But, maybe you would enjoy it. I thought it was interesting!
