Maple Cider - Warm spiced apple drink
Maple Cider is a cozy, aromatic beverage perfect for chilly days. This warm spiced apple drink blends the natural sweetness of apple cider with the rich undertones of pure maple syrup. Infused with a comforting mix of spices such as cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and orange zest, this cider is gently heated to allow the flavors to meld together, creating a soothing and festive beverage.

Ingredients:
- 5 oz bourbon
- 1 oz maple syrup
- 1 oz apple cider
- 5-6 dashes orange bitters
- Ice
- Cinnamon stick or orange peel for garnish
Equipment:
- Shaker

Instructions:
1. Fill your shaker with ice to cool down the contents quickly as you mix your drink.
2. Measure and pour 5 ounces of your favorite bourbon into the shaker.
3. Add 1 ounce of maple syrup to the shaker. The syrup may be thick, so pour carefully to avoid making a mess.
4. Follow the maple syrup with 1 ounce of apple cider. If you're a fan of a more pronounced cider taste, feel free to add a bit more to suit your preference.
