Classic: Spiked Apple Cider

New Hampshire’s crisp autumns and abundant apple orchards inspire this cozy cocktail. Fresh apple cider, apple brandy, and a hint of maple—inspired by the state’s rich syrup tradition—come together with a splash of lemon for brightness. It’s a warm, comforting drink that captures classic New England flavors. Try it chilled over ice for a warm-weather refresher too. You can multiply this by four to make a bigger batch to share.
