Shaking up a classic martini with caramel and apples!
We love our martinis shaken, not stirred - and gave the classic an autumnal twist with fresh apple cider and a dash of cinnamon. Enjoy responsibly ;)

- Combine all ingredients into a cocktail shaker with 1 cup of ice. Shake vigorously.

Notes
Making your own apple cider or caramel would be delicious! We love recipes like this from Ali at Gimme Some Oven!, and this from Stella Parks over at Serious Eats.
