Whether you gotta impress someone or for your own good mood – this apple cinnamon gin cider cocktail is the perfect choice!
I LOVE cocktail bars! Specially really good ones. Those who serve cocktails far from standardized classics. So – just for investigation 😉 – I have to try those drinks that I don’t know yet. Most of the time I end up slightly (or terribly) drunk and with a bar bill that kicks one out of the socks.
Hope you now understand the need for a “iDorisMag” special house cocktail. This one is neither complicated and of course not expensive. But what does make a great cocktail a great cocktail. What are the ingredients of a really good cocktail? A great drink is not simply defined by its ingredients but also by special (secret) ingredients their order and the procedure how they are mixed. This all gives the drink the special flavour. I’m sure you already saw the bartender’s bottles of homemade juices and syrups.
And it’s such a simple syrup that goes into this Gin Cocktail. Maple syrup, apple, cinnamon and thyme make a super flavourful sweet syrup for this cocktail.
Apple and cinnamon – anyways one of the best alltime classic combination. The syrup adds the sweetness to the cocktail. By adding apples and apple cider the cocktail gets the fruitiness. Thyme adds its herbal flavour.
For a bigger round of your friends and family just mulitply the ingredients and you can prepare and serve the cocktail in a jar! Or retro style in a bowle.
Enjoy!
