1 small crisp apple, like Gala or Granny Smith
1 1/2 cups soju
2 to 3 cups chilled tonic water
Ice
Lime wedge or apple wedge (optional)
Julienne or thinly slice apple into matchstick size pieces. Put in a pitcher and stir in soju. Cover and refrigerate; allow the apple to macerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours. Fill a wine or cocktail glass with ice. Strain 1/4 cup soju in each cup and top with tonic water. (Or put in equal parts soju and tonic, if you like your drinks strong.) Add a few apple matchsticks, and garnish with an apple or lime wedge. Serve immediately.
