Apple & Melon Cocktail
The once ubiquitous Green Apple Martini with extra colour and flavour thanks to a dash of melon liqueur

Replaced two thirds of the vodka with gin and the cocktail was surprisingly nice. I don't know, I might have a too fancy sour apple liqueur (it's made by a local distillery), but it kind of tastes like verjus with a melon accent. I was expecting the classic candy appletini but this was fresh and nice. It might actually be something I'll serve at home.
