My friend Cindy came over on Halloween for some pre trick-or-treating festivities.  She came with a scrumptious option for an adult hot apple cider.  Now I like Apple Cider but I don’t love it and often times will forgo the calories for something else – such as, chocolate….  In any event, she convinced me to take a sip from her mug and I was ruined.  This was one delicious and super easy cocktail.

The secret ingredient is cinnamon whiskey such as Fireball or Sinfire.   There is something so soothing about having a warm cocktail that I was never able to relate to since I can’t stand whiskey so I have never thoroughly enjoyed a hot toddy.

I feel so lucky to finally have a warm cocktail recipe that I love and have Cindy to thank. This recipe is delicious, inviting and so simple to make.  While drinking this I felt like I was being wrapped in a  warm, cinnamon-y hug.  I definitely plan on making this for the holidays!
