Apple Cider Mule

by Erin

Transition from summer to fall with this spirited apple cider mule. It’ll warm you up and cool you down at the same time.

It’s September and it’s time to crack open the vault – The Fall Flavors vault!

After summer’s last hurrah of scorching temperatures, it’s finally starting to cool down around here. To make the transition, I used some of Ohio’s very own Buckeye Vodka to make a spirited apple cider mule. Just like my amaretto spiced apple cider and spiced apple cider cocktail, this apple cider mule will warm you up from the inside while still cooling you down.

Don’t want to imbibe? You can easily leave the vodka out of this for a mocktail version. Just add more ginger beer. Or try my Apple Cider Palmer.

Yep, this one has my name on it. Guys have blown through the first gallon of cider already so will have to get more and pick up some of those pretty mugs too!

Well, this mule will kick your ass, just like the wolverines. Probably have better luck this year. The buckeyes haven’t been too spiffy the last three. Any way, I digress. This is an excellent recipe. We make one change: bourbon. But, sill a rah-rah drink. Cheers.
Love your website, have made quite a few of yours.
