What’s in this Apple Cider Cocktail:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Cranberry Juice
1/4 cup Champagne, or 1/2 cup Sparkling Cider for a non-alcoholic version
1/4 cup apple cider
Sprinkle of Cinnamon
2 Apple slices
Handful of Cranberries
Cinnamon Sticks for garnish

Equipment Needed:

Cocktail Glass
Colander
Apple Slicer with 12 blades, optional

🥣 Recipe Tips

Chill Ingredients in Advance: Keep the cranberry juice, apple cider, and champagne (or sparkling cider) refrigerated before mixing. This ensures a refreshing, cold mimosa without needing ice, which could dilute the flavors.
Use Fresh, Thin Apple Slices: Slice apples thinly and uniformly with an apple slicer for a delicate garnish that sits nicely in the glass. Choose crisp varieties like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith for a tart contrast to the sweet juices.
Add Cinnamon Sparingly: Use a light pinch of cinnamon to avoid overpowering the drink. Sprinkle it directly over the fruit before adding liquids to ensure even distribution, and stir gently to blend the flavors without losing the bubbles.

How to Make a Cinnamon Apple Cranberry Mimosa:

Start this Cinnamon Apple Cranberry Mimosa by placing apple slices and a handful of fresh cranberries in a cocktail glass. Sprinkle in a dash of cinnamon. Pour in cranberry juice, apple cider. Fill with champagne or choose sparkling cider for a non-alcoholic version. (don’t use both)

Stir gently and garnish with cinnamon sticks

Note: An apple slicer can make cutting uniform slices easy and it’s well worth the small cost. Also, a small colander is very helpful for washing the berries.

You can top the glass with champagne for the adult version of this Cranberry mimosa or add sparkling cider for the non-alcoholic version. Either way, it is delicious and one can just taste the flavors of fall.
