Tips
-----
The sweetness of apple schnapps varies, and the lemon juice should be adjusted accordingly. For instance, with Bols Sour Apple, the recipe's lemon should be just about perfect. If, however, you opt for the tart bite of DeKuyper Sour Apple Pucker, try it with just a splash of lemon at first.
When cutting an apple slice garnish, dip it in lemon juice. This will preserve the color and keep it from turning yellow once exposed to oxygen.
An elegant lemon twist is a good garnish option as well.
