Maple Apple Spritz Mocktail Recipe
I’m excited to share my favorite recipe for a Maple Apple Spritz Mocktail! 🍎 It’s a refreshing drink with a crisp apple flavor, a hint of maple, and a fizz that’ll light up any gathering. Let’s dive into what you'll need and how to make it!
Equipment
- I used a cocktail shaker to mix everything perfectly.
- You’ll also need a jigger to measure the liquids accurately.
- A muddler is great for enhancing flavors, especially if you like a hint of fresh herbs or spices.
- Keep a few tall glasses and stirring spoons handy.
Ingredients
Here's what you need for this drink:
- 1 cup apple cider
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- ½ cup sparkling water
- Ice cubes
- 1 apple thinly sliced for garnish
- Cinnamon stick optional
- Fresh thyme or rosemary sprig optional
These ingredients come together for a delicious and refreshing mocktail.
Instructions
- Step 1: Fill up a shaker with ice cubes.
- Step 2: Add apple cider and maple syrup into the shaker. Shake it well to mix them nice and bubbly.
- Step 3: Pour the mix into a tall glass. Top it off with sparkling water for that lovely fizz.
- Step 4: Stir gently with a spoon. Add a slice of apple on the rim and a cinnamon stick if you like extra flavor.
Notes
I love experimenting with flavors, so I sometimes use different apple varieties to see how it changes the taste. 🍏 Jazz it up with sprigs of thyme or rosemary for a herby twist.
Feel free to adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup. Remember, sharing is caring, so tag me with your creations or drop a comment about how your mocktail turned out! 🥤
