Caramel Apple

Pro tips

• Chill your glass before serving to keep the drink cold longer without dilution.
• Stir ingredients thoroughly with ice for 10–15 seconds to blend flavors evenly.
• Serve immediately after mixing to preserve carbonation if you add any club soda or ginger ale as an optional float.

Substitutions

• Apple schnapps → apple juice or apple cider (non-alcoholic version; reduces sweetness slightly)
• Butterscotch schnapps → caramel liqueur (similar sweetness, slightly deeper caramel note)

Can I make this as a shot instead of a cocktail?

Yes. Pour equal parts butterscotch and apple schnapps into a shot glass, stir, and serve at room temperature or chilled.

What glassware should I use?

A rocks glass or shot glass works best. Rocks glass if served as a longer drink; shot glass for a quick sipper.

Is this drink hot or cold?

Typically served chilled or at room temperature. You can warm it gently if you prefer a warm dessert drink, but do not boil.

Can I substitute the schnapps?

Butterscotch schnapps is the base and difficult to replace. Apple schnapps can be swapped for apple juice or apple cider for a non-alcoholic version.

How strong is this cocktail?

It contains 1.5 oz total of 40-proof schnapps, making it moderate in alcohol content with a sweet, approachable flavor.
