    Several weeks ago, I came across a recipe that called for caramel infused vodka. Out of curiosity, I decided to try it myself because lets be honest, its kind of neat to watch caramels melt in the alcohol, hehe! I headed to the liquor store, grabbed a bottle of Tito’s vodka and grabbed a bag of caramels on my way home.

    After a day or so of letting the caramels melt away, the vodka was ready to go. My only problem was, I had no plans for it as I hadn’t quite thought that far, lol! My hubby and I took a tiny sip just to try the flavor and sure enough, it was amazing! Very flavorful! However, straight vodka isn’t our thing, so we immediately decided to try it in a warmed up mug of apple cider. It ended up being the perfect way to end our evening and our new “go to” drink to enjoy on a cold evening!

    Over the years, my husband and I have enjoyed playing around with drink combinations to experiment and try new things. He is more into the strong, straight type drinks, whereas I love a good, fruity beverage. The type that taste more sugary than alcohol of course! If you take a look through the blog, I am sure you’ll find a favorite for everyone!

    When we find a drink that we BOTH enjoy, we definitely make note of it because its a rarity! This Caramel Apple drink was one that immediately intrigued us and since creating, we have made several times! Plus, its so simple, its great if having company over!
