Ingredients
2cupsapple cider, to be frozen into cubes
1 and 1/4cupsapple cider, for blending
pinchofcinnamon
pinchofnutmeg
1/2tsp vanilla extract
1tbspmaple syrup
Asplashof bourbon or apple brandy, optional
apple slices and cinnamon sticks for optional garnish
Instructions
Prep: The day before (or up to a week before), freeze two cups worth of apple cider in ice cube trays. It's important to do this, because blending apple cider with regular ice cubes will water down the flavor a ton. When ready to make the slushies, dip the rims of your glasses in water or apple cider, and then into a small pile of cane sugar on a plate to make sugar rims. This is optional.
Make the Slushies: Add the fresh apple cider to your Oster One Touch Blender, then the apple cider ice cubes, and the remaining ingredients. Secure the lid and blend on high until everything is blended into slushy consistency.
Serve: Serve immediately, and top with a cinnamon stick or apple slices for a fun garnish. Make multiple batches to yield more drinks.
