Here is a cocktail that really highlights flavors of fall. It is also a great cocktail to serve while entertaining at this time of the year, as you can batch it up in a pitcher. Just pour it and top with the sparking cider as guests arrive. The apple syrup is easy to make ahead, and you’ll get a bonus bowl of sweet, spiced apples to use on ice cream or waffles!
Fuji Sparkler
1½ oz North Shore Vodka
¾ oz Fresh Lemon Juice
½ oz Spiced Apple Syrup
1½ oz Sparkling Cider
Shake first three ingredients with ice; strain into a champagne flute. Top with sparkling cider, and garnish with a long lemon curl.
This cocktail is also delicious with our Aquavit – Private Reserve in place of the vodka. Try it both ways!
