Adult Apple Ciders

This Caramel Apple Cider Cocktail is Topped With All the Autumnal Trimmings

This caramel apple cider is a more adult take on the classic autumnal drink. Created by Rachel Kivlahan at the blog Sugar Coated Inspiration, the warm alcoholic beverage is described as being "like a hug in a mason jar." Of course, that depends on the container it is served in as well.

If you are feeling festive and ready to welcome the fall season, you can recreate this recipe at home. You will need ingredients such as store-bought (but good quality) apple cider plus Stoli Salted Karamel vodka to make the adult caramel apple cider. The toppings are what make this libation truly decadent. You might want to add pumpkin pie-flavored whipped cream, cinnamon and pumpkin biscotti. A homemade caramel drizzle (consisting of butter, brown sugar, warm milk or cream and vanilla) is always a good idea.
