Cinnamon Apple Fizz – Cocktail of the Week
It's official, fall is here, but since Mother Nature didn't get the memo, we're still in need of a crisp, refreshing cocktail!
I've been on a bit of a hard cider kick lately, not sure if it's because it's apple season, or because it reminds me of my childhood (what kid doesn't love apple juice?) in the best possible way.
With that in mind, I present an impossibly simple cocktail (and as a bonus, a more complicated version for the mixology lovers!)
Ingredients:
- 1.5 oz cinnamon whiskey (like Fireball)
- 1 pint hard cider
Combine the two, give a quick stir, and serve in a frosted glass. If you're feeling fancy, garnish with an apple chip.
The complicated one?
Bonus Fizz Ingredients:
- 1.5 oz. cinnamon vodka or whiskey
- 1 oz. apple brandy
- 4 oz. apple cider
- 1 oz. club soda (or sparkling apple cider)
Combine cinnamon liquor, brandy, and cider and shake over ice. Pour into glass and top with club soda (or sparkling cider). Garnish with cinnamon stick and apple chip.
