I thought it would be appropriate to make spiked apple cider on this last Friday of October (!!). It’s the perfect fall cocktail, full of warmth from both the warm cider and the bourbon and of course a little cinnamon sugar pizazz around the rim.
Cheers to you! Have a fantastic weekend!
spiked apple cider
makes 2 cocktails
1 cup apple cider
2 cinnamon sticks
4 oz bourbon
1 Tablespoon cinnamon sugar
1
Warm the cider on the stovetop with the cinnamon sticks until it’s reduced to about half a cup. This should take about 15 minutes over low heat.
2
Pour the cinnamon sugar on a plate. Just barely dip the rim of your glasses in the cider, then dip it in the sugar.
3
Add the 2 oz bourbon to each glass and top with the cider.
4
Garnish each glass with a cinnamon stick and enjoy!

I was looking at recipes yesterday for a boozy cider!! I am having a halloween party and am going to have a big dutch oven full. I bought rum instead of bourbon but it should be delicious.
Have a great Halloween!
