Sweet! Classic Candy Corn Martini
You know we couldn't throw a party without a signature cocktail! For each of our five Halloween parties, we'll be sharing a creative cocktail that works perfectly with the party theme. We clearly had to start with a candy corn martini. The trick to this sweet drink is made with candy corn infused vodka. If you can't go into sugar shock at Halloween, when else can you? Just remember that you'll have to make the candy corn vodka a couple of days in advance to give it time to infuse. Let's get shaking!
Ingredients:
– 1/4 cup candy corn
– 1 – 1 1/2 cups vodka
– 1/2 cup honey
– 1/2 cup water
Instructions
1. To make candy corn infused vodka, combine pour candy corn into a mason jar and fill the jar with vodka. Let sit for five days before straining.
2. To make the honey simple syrup, combine honey and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk until combined and let simmer for a few minutes until thickened. Transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge until ready to use.
3. To make the cocktail, combine one large measure of candy corn vodka with one small measure of honey simple syrup in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake vigorously until the shaker is too cold to handle.
4. Pour into a cocktail glass and garnish with a few candy corn.
Now it’s our real favorite part—drinking! Cheers!
