Jokes aside, this drink was a HIT! Which is why we aptly named it the Apple Pie Knockoutšš» Hereās how ya do it (makes ~12):
ā¢ 1/2 gallon apple cider (not juice – important)
ā¢ 12 oz @threeolives apple pear vodka
ā¢ 36 oz @fevertreemixers non-alcoholic ginger beer
ā¢ 1 bottle inexpensive white wine (@cupcakevineyards sauvignon blanc was perf for this, but anything light/crisp will do)
ā¢ 2 tsp cinnamon
ā¢ 2 small apples
ā¢ Cinnamon sugar for the rim
ā¢ā¢ā¢
1. Mix together all ingredients except apples and cinnamon sugar.
2. Chop apples roughly into 3/4-1 inch pieces. Add to drink mixture and stir.
3. Pull out an apple chunk and force it onto the rim of your glass. Slide it all the way around until the entire inside and outside of the rim are wet.
4. Pour cinnamon sugar into a shallow bowl or plate. Flip the glass upside down and give it a slight wiggle so the entire rim gets coated.
5. Add ice (I prefer the large round ice balls like from @mnpureclearice!) and pour your drink over the top, leaving apple chunks in the pitcher. Enjoy!!

Serving suggestion: enjoy on the deck with a game of cribbageš But really you could drink this anywhere and it would be fabššš»
