Method
Cocktail
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add apple-flavored vodka (2 oz), triple sec (3/4 oz), tart cranberry juice (1 oz), fresh lime juice (1/2 oz), and simple syrup (1/4 oz) if you prefer a slightly sweeter balance.
Add ice and shake
Add 6 ice cubes to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold to the touch and the outside has a light frost. This both chills and slightly dilutes the cocktail to balance flavors.
Strain and serve
Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe or martini glass using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer (or just a Hawthorne if you don't have a mesh). This yields a clear, silky drink served 'up' (without ice).
Garnish
Float a lime wheel on the surface or drop it on the rim for aroma and presentation.
Taste and adjust (optional)
If the drink tastes too tart, stir in an additional 1/4 oz simple syrup and re-shake briefly with fresh ice, then strain again.
