This Hard Apple Cider cocktail is made with rye and apple cider for an drink that will put you right in the mood for fall.
When fall approaches, I start thinking about what apple cocktails I can be making to usher in my favorite season. The apples at the end of September are so ripe and delicious. They just belong in a glass.

This apple cocktail is one of my favorites. It mixes rye with fresh apple cider and a little bit of lemon juice and maple syrup — flavors that just scream fall when put together.
If you’re looking for a good cocktail to serve at a Halloween party or Thanksgiving dinner, this is the one.
Even if you don’t love rye on its own, you’ll like it in this cocktail. The other flavors are powerful enough to stand up to the rye. So don’t let that stop you.
