Notes

Pro Tips

These tips help you make a cleaner, brighter drink with very little effort, so each glass tastes balanced and comforting.
  • Chill your glasses ahead of time for a colder sip
  • Use fresh lime juice since bottled versions taste flat
  • Shake with plenty of ice for a smoother blend
  • Choose cold cider to keep the drink crisp
  • Add a cinnamon stick for extra aroma
  • Garnish with thin apple slices for a pretty touch
  • Taste before serving and adjust the sweetness with more cider
  • Try a cinnamon sugar rim for extra flavor
Small changes like different citrus levels or cider strength can shift the drink in fun ways, so play around until it suits your taste.
