Notes
Pro Tips
For the spice sugar rim, mix equal parts sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of ground ginger for an extra kick.
To enhance the apple flavor, use freshly pressed apple cider.
The ginger beer adds a spicy, effervescent finish; adjust the amount to your liking for more or less fizziness.
