Ingredients
- Fresh apple cider (chilled)
- Dry sparkling wine or champagne (chilled)
- Granulated sugar
- Ground cinnamon
- Lemon wedges
- Thin apple slices (for garnish)
Instructions
- Mix two tablespoons of granulated sugar with one teaspoon of ground cinnamon on a small plate and stir until combined.
- Run a lemon wedge around the outer rim of champagne flutes to wet the edge.
- Dip the rim of each glass into the cinnamon sugar mixture, twisting gently to coat evenly, then tap off any excess.
- Fill each glass about two-thirds full with cold apple cider.
- Slowly top off each glass with dry sparkling wine, pouring down the side to preserve bubbles.
- Garnish with a thin slice of apple on the rim or dropped into the drink.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure all ingredients are well-chilled for the best texture. Pour the sparkling wine slowly to maintain carbonation. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the sparkling wine with ginger ale or sparkling apple cider. Use fresh Ceylon cinnamon for a milder flavor, or regular ground cinnamon if preferred.
