Fall is my favorite time of year. Is there anything better than fall foliage, pumpkin spiced everything, and finally busting out those Frye leather boots? I argue, no. I love making these each year when the weather gets below 70 degrees...this is Atlanta after all. We have been making little improvements to our home as of late because we are hosting Thanksgiving here this year! I feel so grown up! I've been working on menu ideas and decor this month for the holidays, but this beverage is a classic. I will be sharing ideas this month for healthy Thanksgiving recipes and chic decorating ideas for your own soiree. If you have any specific requests, let me know in the comments!
Ingredients: lemon, bourbon, apple cider, mulling spices, cinnamon sticks.
Put the mulling spices in a tea ball or cheese cloth.
Add the mulling spices to the cider and heat the cider over medium heat until aromatic (about 10 minutes).
Add 1-2 shots of bourbon to your mug and then top it off with the cider.
I like to garnish with apple slices because they aren't as widely used to garnish and give it an extra kick of flavor.
And there you have it! An easy fall treat that will warm you up in seconds! Enjoy fireside. :)
Ingredients:
Use 2 cups of cider for every 1 drink
1/4 cup mulling spices for every 2 cups of cider
I use 1-2 shots of Maker's Mark in each mug
Garnish with lemon wedge, cinnamon stick or apple slices
