Description

Ingredients

• 4 oz apple cider
• 3 oz Cinnamon Simple Syrup (ingredients & recipe below)
• 3 oz Applejack (Liards)
• 4 oz white rum
• Diced apples
• Mint leaves
• Cinnamon sticks
• ¼ cup sugar
• ¼ cup plus 1 TBS of water
• cinnamon stick broken in half

Directions

• Place ¼ cup sugar, ¼ cup plus 1 TBS water and half cinnamon stick in a small pot; bring to a boil and then turn off the heat and allow the mixture to sit and cool to room temperature.
• Pour into a mason jar and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Combine cider, cinnamon simple syrup, Applejack and rum in a cocktail shaker or glass measuring cup; shake or stir well.
• In two serving glasses, muddle as much or as little mint as you desire. Fill both glasses with ice.
• Throw in a small handful of diced apples (I like skin on for color) and then add your cider mixture, splitting it evenly between both glasses, and stir.
• Garnish with a cinnamon stick and extra mint leaves.
