For me no drink symbolizes fall quite like apple cider. Whether you like your apple cider cool and crisp or warm and cozy there’s no denying just how tasty the signature drink of autumn can be. While delicious on it’s own apple cider is also a great base for a number of great cocktails. From mules and mimosas to spiked slushies and hot drinks that warm body and soul I’ve gathered up some of the best apple cider cocktail recipes.
