History

Had this drink at reception catered by www.drinksf.com. Fall 2009? They called it an apple/sage martini but other than it being served in a martini glass and being delicious, it is nothing like a martini.

  • Because the main liquor is vodka, the sage comes through, which is pleasant. Also, we had no apple cider, so we used applejack, which made it slightly less applely.
