I was recently at a party in Vermont where we pressed apple cider, so I was casting about for cocktail-with-cider ideas, and found this one from liquor.com: the Autumn Apple. It’s very approachable and refreshing, though I downed the honey and upped the bitters to make it a little more complex (in my opinion). It got good reviews from my family; I got asked for seconds!

  • 2 ounces Bluecoat American dry gin
  • 2 ounces apple cider
  • 1/2 ounce lemon juice, freshly squeezed
  • 1/2 ounce honey syrup
  • 1 dash aromatic bitters
  • 1 pinch cinnamon

Shake with ice, strain into a glass, and garnish with a lemon twist.

    This was exactly what I needed to see. Had some honey syrup on hand and wanted to use it in something and it ended up being the perfect drink for a fall night
