"Fall" Hard Cider Spritz Tue, Dec 13, 22 | recipes Our favorite bright orange, summer sippin’ aperitif is making its way into our fall festivities! With the right balance of Aperol, rye whiskey, and hard cider, guests are bound to “fall” for this fall hard cider cocktail. Serve as a welcome beverage this Thanksgiving! This hard cider spritz recipe serves four. Bar supplies: Jigger Glassware of your choice Stir spoon Ice cubes Ingredient Amount Rye whiskey 2 ounces Dry hard cider, chilled (we used Snow Capped 6130′ Dry Hard Cider) (2) 12 ounce bottles Apple cider 4 ounces Aperol 1 ounce Lemon juice 1 ounce Quartered and thinly sliced unpeeled green and red apples for garnish Club soda to top off Preparation: For each cocktail, pour 6 ounces of hard cider, 1 ounce of apple cider, ½ ounce of rye whiskey, ¼ ounce of Aperol, and ¼ ounce of lemon juice into a rocks glass filled with ice. Top off with club soda. Gently stir to combine and garnish with an apple slice. Tip from bon appétit: Instead of lemon juice, you can use fresh grapefruit or orange juice; bourbon is a great sub for rye. We hope you enjoy this hard cider bourbon cocktail!
