Yes, we know.. Another apple cider drink, but it’s absolutely worth it. There’s even a bonus- a cinnamon sugar rim. 

Here’s what you’ll need for this apple cider margarita: Tequila, Lime juice, Cointreau, Apple cider, Cinnamon and sugar for the rim.

No need for one glass, let’s make a pitcher (8 servings). Place 1 ½ cups tequila, 2 cups apple cider, ¾ cup Triple Sec or Cointreau, and ¾ cup lime juice in a pitcher. Add 3 handfuls ice and stir until cold. Prepare the glasses separately, then add 2/3 cup to each glass and garnish with ice.

Apple Cider Mimosa

This spin on the traditional mimosa is all fall: crisp, bubbly and apple forward. You will need 1 tablespoon sugar, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, 2 ounces (¼ cup) apple cider, 4 ounces  (½ cup) sparkling wine (Champagne or Prosecco) and 1 teaspoon Cointreau.

Prepare the rim mixture by grabbing cinnamon and sugar on a flat plate. Wet the rims of the champagne flutes and press them into cinnamon sugar. Then tilt the champagne flute and pour in the sparkling wine (it will fill about 2/3 of the glass). Top off with cider and then add the splash of Cointreau if desired.
