Tips:

You could actually pull off this Halloween teen drink with store-bought apple cider, but it’s so much more fun to make your own! If you do go the store route, do yourself a huge favor and get it from a farmer’s market. We have this super cool maze in our area where they also sell pumpkins and apple cider. It just tastes better because it’s pretty much as close to homemade as you can get. Still, I say give the recipe a try. It’s fun to make with friends!

For the apples, make sure you get a bunch of different types. If there are 12 apple varieties in your store, go ahead and grab one from each! If there are only 6, get two from each. I never knew this (I thought an apple was an apple), but apples actually have VERY different flavors depending on the type. So if you get 12 of the tart kind (and I totally couldn’t tell you which those are), you’ll end up with cider that puckers your cheeks. Hmmm, guess that’s where they get the sour apple flavor! But if you get a mix, they all kind of balance each other out.

  4. I’m loving all these Fall recipes right now. The cider one is particularly refreshing and would be fun for the teens (and moms). 😉
