appletinis

Fruity vodka drinks

An appletini is a cocktail made with vodka and apple-flavored liqueur or juice, typically bright green and served in a martini glass.

The drink gained popularity in the 1990s and became associated with trendy bars and a certain type of drinker—often invoked as shorthand for someone who orders "girly" drinks: He's not a beer guy, he orders appletinis.
