JD's Appletini from Scrubs AND A Craft DIY version | How to Drink

Scrubs had a long running gag about JD ordering Appletini's, and today I'm making them. One standard, and one using homemade Apple Liqueur.

Scrub's ran on a couple of different networks for like, 12 seasons I think starting in 2004. I don't have my notes in front of me as I'm writing this and I'm too busy to check, but the stuff I say in the episode is accurate. :) Anyway, I think the joke about him liking Appletini's is pretty crummy for a lot of reasons, and looking back at that show for research from the year 2020 kind of made me recoil, none of that commentary made it into the episode though. I wanted to make the appletini and see how it is, I'm honestly not sure if I ever had one before or not, but ALSO tasting DeKuyper's Apple Pucker made me think about making my own Apple Liqueur, so the second half of this episode is all about me making my own stuff from scratch and then building an Appletini of my own design. Spoiler: it is better.
