Caramel Apple Cider with whipped cream on top.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Drinking a cup of this apple cider is so very reminiscent of enjoying a real caramel apple at the county fair! Except, there's no sticky mess. It's a rich and delicious treat. We rimmed the glass with a little caramel and topped it with whipped cream. This is almost like a dessert and not something you'd have all the time. Perfect on a cool crisp evening. If you want to make this an alcoholic drink, add a shot of whisky or bourbon.
