Nothing says fall like Moscow Mules served in copper mugs!
With Thanksgiving next week and apple season in full swing, I’ve take a seasonal twist on this classic favorite with apple cider mules!
Making your own apple cider at home is so easy as long as you have a juicer for apples to make fresh apple juice or have reliable brand on hand. Using seasonal fall spices, slowly simmer your cider over the stove top (also making your home/kitchen smell heavenly) and allow to cool before assembling your apple cider mules.
I made the apple cider base using Uncle Matt’s Organic Apple Juice.
I love this juice because it’s only made with one ingredient – organic apples – no added sugar. They use a cold pressed method to extract their juice which helps preserve the taste and nutrition especially heat-sensitive vitamins like vitamin C.
Serve these up on Thanksgiving or enjoy all season long!
