Ingredients

  • 3 oz apple juice
  • 0.75 oz cinnamon schnapps
  • 0.5 oz honey
  • 0.5 oz hot water
  • 3 oz sparkling wine
  • Cinnamon & sugar for rim
  • Apple slice for garnish

Instructions

  • Start by making the honey syrup. Combine the honey with hot water and stir until the honey is fully dissolved. Allow it to cool before preparing the cocktail.
  • Prepare the glasses by mixing a bit of cinnamon and granulated sugar in a shallow dish. Wet the rim of each glass with water, then dip the rim into the cinnamon sugar to coat. Set the glasses aside.
  • In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the apple juice, cinnamon schnapps, and the cooled honey syrup.
  • Shake the mixture well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and chilled.
  • Strain the mixture into the prepared glass.
  • Top the glass with 3 oz of sparkling wine, and gently stir to combine the ingredients.
  • Garnish each glass with an apple slice for a festive touch.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy your Sparkling Apple Pie Cocktail!

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Make the honey syrup ahead of time and store it in the fridge for quick preparation.
  • For a drier balance, choose a Brut sparkling wine; for sweeter notes, use Prosecco.
  • Use fresh-pressed apple juice for a more authentic apple pie character.
