You can use a different variety of apple if you prefer, obviously, I have chosen to use a Honeycrisp for my apple cocktail recipe.
What Can I Use Instead of Apple Vodka?
This recipe uses apple vodka which you can find in liquor stores from a number of brands.
If you can’t find this vodka, you can use plain vodka with apple syrup I would use 1 tablespoons of syrup so your cocktail is not too sweet.
You can buy apple syrup on Amazon or make it yourself.
