Instructions
In a cocktail shaker, combine the still apple cider, lime juice, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of powdered cinnamon. Add a few ice cubes to the shaker.
Clap the mint leaves together in your hands to release their aroma and add them to the shaker.
Shake the mixture for 20-30 seconds until the ingredients are well combined and chilled.
Strain the mixture into an ice-filled glass. Top with ginger ale.
Stir gently to combine, then garnish with additional mint leaves, a dried citrus slice, or a cinnamon stick for a festive touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy the crisp, spicy, and refreshing flavors of this fall-inspired drink.
Notes
Pro Tips
Adjust the sweetness by using different types of apple cider; unfiltered or fresh-pressed cider will give a richer flavor.
For a stronger cinnamon flavor, add an extra pinch or garnish with a cinnamon stick.
To elevate the presentation, consider using a cinnamon-sugar rim on the glass.
