Irish whiskey has found its way into one of the most popular fruity martinis ever. I'm talking about the Apple Martini, love it or not. Actually, as far as the apple-tini craze goes, this might be one of the best options to date. Yes, it does include sour apple schnapps, and that is key for getting the drink its greenish color along with much of its flavor. The other two ingredients, Irish whiskey and white cranberry juice, are there for flavor and take some of the bite out. Remember that white cranberry juice is key here. It's a little bit lighter in flavor and the red juice destroys the gold-green hue of the drink.
