Honeycrisp Maple Bourbon Cocktail

HONEYCRISP MAPLE BOURBON COCKTAIL WITH PUMPKIN SPICE

Fall drinks are well on their way and I started early. You can drink this warm too I dare say, but there’s something about ice cold apple cider that really hits the spot for me. But when the temperatures hit lower than 40, then we’ll be brewing up some warm beverages.

Heinen’s has a delightfully rich, maple bourbon organic syrup that is used here.

Don’t forget to mix pumpkin pie spice with granulated sugar for the rim!
