Apple, maple, and cinnamon are all flavors of fall, but also wonderful flavors to put in a cocktail.
Nate Blury from the group Drink GR, joins the Fox 17 Morning Mix to share some cocktail recipes that are perfect to sip on during the autumn season.
Maple Bourbon Cider
- 2 ounces Apple Cider chilled
- 1 ounce Varchas Bourbon
- ½ to one tsp maple syrup optional
- 2 ounces Ginger Beer chilled
- Apple wedges for garnish
Combine cider, bourbon, and syrup in a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake until very cold (if serving a crowd, combine these two ingredients in a pitcher and refrigerate for at least an hour.) Strain the mixture into an ice-filled glass and top it with the chilled ginger beer. Stir gently. Garnish with an apple wedge and serve.
Apple Cider Mule
