Calories: 304kcal
Ingredients
- 7 Ounces Apple Cider hot or chilled
- 3 Ounces Fireball Whiskey
- Red Apple Slices optional garnish
- Cinnamon Sticks optional garnish
- Whole Star Anise optional garnish
- Fresh Rosemary Sprigs optional garnish
Instructions
- Start by preparing your glass - if you're serving it chilled, add ice to a 12-ounce cocktail glass first. For the hot version, ensure your apple cider is warm on the stove. Pour 3 ounces of Fireball whiskey into your prepared glass, then top with 7 ounces of apple cider.
- Finish by adding your desired garnishes - red apple slices, cinnamon sticks, star anise, and fresh rosemary sprigs all look beautiful and add extra flavor. Give it a gentle stir and enjoy immediately while the flavors are perfectly balanced.
Notes
- Choose a glass larger than 12 ounces if using ice and multiple garnishes to ensure everything fits comfortably without overflowing.
- Warm your apple cider gently on the stove rather than microwaving for the best hot version - this prevents any harsh flavors from developing.
- Taste before adding garnishes and adjust the Fireball-to-cider ratio based on your preference for spice level.
- Make the garnishes ahead of time by slicing the apples and storing them in lemon water to prevent browning.
