This refreshing aperitif, a brainchild of David Arnold of the French Culinary Institute, bathes crisp matchsticks of Pink Lady apple with soju (a Korean spirit) and a little sparkle. Ingredients:
1 pink lady or granny smith apple |
2 cups soju or sake |
5 cups chilled tonic water (40 fluid ounces) |
8 lime wedges |
Directions:
1. Cut apple into matchsticks with slicer, discarding core, then put in a pitcher and stir in soju. Let macerate, covered and chilled, at least 30 minutes. 2. Fill 8 (12-ounce) double Old Fashioned glasses with ice. Strain about 1/4 cup soju into each glass, then add some apple pieces to each glass. Top off drinks with tonic and serve with lime wedges. 3. Cooks' note: Apples in soju can be chilled up to 2 hours. |
