Baby it’s cold outside and what better way to warm up then with a hot fresh pressed (if you’re at my house) apple & pear cider with a splash of Sauvie Pear and Cardamom Shrub. This is by far the best drink I’ve come up with to date. Take my word: light a fire, invite your friends over, cozy up and serve them up a hot Apple Pear Shrub Cider. Consider a dollop of whipped cream and report back to us! 

HOT APPLE PEAR SHRUB CIDER

• 6-8 oz hot apple cider (optional - add a splash of pear juice to make it that much more decadent)

• Cinnamon sticks (and any other spices you enjoy in your cider such as cloves, cardamom, star anise)

• 1 oz Pear Cardamom Shrub

• 1.5 oz whisky, brandy or bourbon

• Optional dollop of fresh whipped cream

Heat cider to hot (but not boiling: this will ruin the good enzymes in the ACV) and add your Shrub shot. Perfection in a mug!

For a non-alcoholic version simply omit the alcohol.
