Here in Kentucky, the weather is starting to mellow out a little bit and the leaves will be turning soon. At the first signs of fall, I start craving all things apple, cinnamon, pumpkin and of course…bourbon! September is also National Bourbon Heritage Month, which basically means that we should celebrate bourbon in every way possible, right? It seems fitting that bourbon and apples would go together well, and this bourbon apple cider drink is absolute perfection. It’s got the perfect blend of bourbon, apple cider and a little hint of cinnamon and ginger too. Matt and I will be enjoying this lovely concoction this weekend while we sit around our fire pit!

What’s in a Bourbon Apple Cider?

  • 3 ounces of apple cider
  • 2 ounces of bourbon
  • ½ teaspoon of lemon juice
  • 2 ounces of ginger ale

    This drink is a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spice! Try freezing the cider, bourbon, and lemon and then adding the ginger beer to make a slush. Yum!
