Instructions
Preparation
Step 1: Prepare Your Glass
Choose a lowball or rocks glass for serving this cocktail. Add a few ice cubes to chill the glass.
Step 2: Add the Whiskey and Apple Cider
Pour the Crown Royal Salted Caramel Whiskey over the ice, followed by the apple cider. Stir gently to blend the flavors together.
Step 3: Add a Splash of Fizz
Top off the drink with ginger ale or club soda. This adds a touch of effervescence, balancing the richness of the caramel and the sweetness of the apple cider.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
For an extra autumnal touch, garnish with a slice of fresh apple or a cinnamon stick. You can even drizzle a bit of caramel around the rim of the glass for added flair and sweetness.
Step 5: Enjoy!
Your Crown Royal Caramel Apple cocktail is ready to be savored. Sip slowly and enjoy the warm, comforting flavors.
Notes
- Quality Ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality apple cider for the best flavor. If you don’t have Crown Royal Salted Caramel, you can use regular Crown Royal and add a touch of caramel syrup.
- Adjusting Sweetness: If you prefer a less sweet drink, reduce the amount of apple cider or opt for club soda instead of ginger ale.
- Choosing Your Glassware: A lowball glass works well for a cozy, fall presentation, but you can also serve it in a martini glass or even a Mason jar for a rustic look.
