Spiked Apple Cider Slushee

Definitely time for another cocktail recipe on the blog. In the spirit of autumn, we’re going all in with apples for October’s seasonal menu. This cocktail uses apple cider as well as apple brandy and it is ridiculously simple to make. Unlike so many other frozen blended drinks, this recipe is SMOOTH. It’s the perfect ‘slush’ thanks to frozen apple cider instead of regular ice cubes. The flavor is also nice and concentrated instead of watered down. We’ve made this several times over the past few weeks….it’s that good. And for those of you who have hot Octobers: here you go. No sweaters or vests for you, but please enjoy frozen apple cider cocktails (especially during trick-or-treat duty).
