This sparkling, crisp mocktail features sweet apple cider, spicy ginger, fresh apple slices, and a hint of maple syrup. The result is a refreshing, slightly tart, and gently spiced drink—perfect for fall or any festive gathering!
Fill a pitcher halfway with ice cubes. Pour in apple cider, ginger beer, and sparkling water.
Add maple syrup and stir gently until mixed.
Add apple slices, ginger pieces, and cinnamon stick. Stir gently again.
Let sit 3–5 minutes to let flavors meld.
Pour into glasses with ice. Garnish with extra apple slices or cinnamon stick if desired. Serve ice-cold.
Notes
Ginger beer gives more spice; ginger ale is milder. Use sparkling apple cider for extra fizz. Adjust maple syrup to taste. For less sweet, increase sparkling water. Serve cold for best flavor!
