Cocktail Description

The Meadow Apple Martini combines the mysterious essence of bison grass vodka with orchard-fresh apple for a taste that's simultaneously wild and familiar.

This elegant cocktail balances the herbal, vanilla-like notes of Zubrowka with the natural sweetness of apple juice and honey, while lemon provides just enough brightness to keep it from becoming cloying. Each sip delivers a surprisingly complex flavor journey—starting with grassy aromatics, followed by apple sweetness, and finishing with a subtle citrus tang. Perfect for early autumn gatherings or as a sophisticated pre-dinner drink, it makes an excellent companion to a cheese board featuring aged gouda or mild blue cheese. The Meadow Apple Martini also pairs wonderfully with pork dishes or apple-based desserts. Despite its refined appearance, it's remarkably straightforward to make at home, requiring only basic shaking technique and attention to properly dissolving the honey before adding the remaining ingredients.
