Shamrock Fizz

Makes 2 servings

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup apple juice
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• Drop of green food coloring
• 2 cups lemonade
• 1 cup club soda
• Green Sanding Sugar
• Granny Smith apple, sliced 

Instructions:

1. Make Simple Syrup – Heat water and apple juice in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until hot. Do not boil. Add the sugar and stir until fully dissolved. Add a drop of green food coloring. Allow to cool to room temperature. Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator. Alternately, you could use Rose’s Green Apple Syrup instead.

2. Prepare Garnish – Using a shamrock cookie cutter, cut a shamrock out of an apple slice. Carefully cut a 1/2 slit in the shamrock stem. Set aside.

3. Prepare Glasses – Dip the rim of each glass in water and then in green sanding sugar to coat. Fill each glass with ice cubes.

4. Assemble Drinks – Fill glasses half way with lemonade. Top with club soda. Finally pour green syrup over the top. Place the shamrock apple slice over the rim of the glass. Serve immediately.
