It’s the day after Halloween, which means you’ve probably got heaping gobs of candy all over your house. (Fact: I do not have children, nor do we get any trick-or-treaters, but I still felt compelled to buy/eat candy last night to “get in the holiday spirit.”)
If you’ve looking for a more grown-up candy option, or just looking for a totally satisfying sweet and savory adult beverage, look no further than this recipe for a Salted Caramel Pretzel Martini.
