Caramel green apple cocktail
We have a wonderful town not too far from us that is known for its apples. We try and go every Fall season to go apple picking, drink cider, feast on apple pie, and of course, the kids ask to take home an incredible caramel apple.
To me, this cocktail is the marriage of the sweet deliciousness of caramel green apples and a hot toddy. This delicious cocktail is full of caramel apple flavors of fall.
Caramel Apple Butterscotch Cocktail
Ingredients:
- apple
- Don Q Gran Añejo rum
- Apple Brandy
- Caramel or Butterscotch Liqueur (Butterscotch schnapps)
- splash of apple cider
- caramel syrup
- whipped cream

How To Make Caramel Apple Drink
Start by cutting the top off of the apple. Using a melon baller, scoop the inside of the apple out making sure to keep the bottom of the apple intact. If you have a bit of lemon juice, squeeze it in the apple to make sure it doesn't brown.
Add your rum, brandy, liqueur, and cider to a cocktail shaker and shake it. Pour into your apples Add your whipped cream to the top, then drizzle the caramel over the top along with a sweet little caramel candy.
You and your guest will love to enjoy these as after-dinner dessert cocktails or to sip throughout the gathering. This caramel apple cider cocktail is the best thing you will have all holiday season.
In case you don't want to serve this cocktail in an apple, we recommend a martini glass rimmed with cinnamon sugar or brown sugar on the rim of your glass. Or a lowball glass with a cinnamon stick in it.
Don Q Gran Anejo
It's made with the most delicious Puerto Rican rum, Don Q Gran Añejo. Those that know Puerto Rico and have visited Puerto Rico, know they are known throughout the world for the most incredible rums.
Don Q has been producing some of the most exquisite rums since 1865 by Destilería Serrallés, the birthplace of Puerto Rican rum.
With the abundance of apples this time of year, we're all about infusing the flavors and incorporating all things with them.
The same goes for Don Q Gran Añejo rum. For those that do not know, this premium rum can be combined with a number of different flavors and mixes. Gran Añejo is a blend of rums aged in American white oak barrels and Spanish sherry casks using the Solera aging system.
This gives it hints of caramel and vanilla making it easy to mix with sodas, juices, or in our case other flavored alcohols.
Alternative Alcohols For This Recipe
There are different alcohols that could replace the rum that would still give the Fall flavors and make the perfect cocktail
Replacing the vodka would make this drink a caramel apple martini. There are different vodka flavors that play right into the caramel apple flavor including apple vodka, vanilla vodka, and caramel vodka.
