Have Your Cider And Eat The Cup Too!


These are a super cute way to serve juice and a snack in the same container!

You will need:
  • Apple Cider
  • Cranberry Juice
  • Seltzer Water
  • Apple (1 per drink)
  • Cinnamon Stick (1 per drink)
  • Melon Baller
  • Lemon juice, optional

Directions:

1. Cut the top off of the apple and brush the top with lemon juice to keep from
    browning.
2. Use the melon baller and scoop out the insides. Leave a wall about an 1/8" thick.
    Set the apple balls aside to serve as a snack. To keep them from browning, set
    in a bowl of lemon juice water.

3. Mix equal parts apple cider, cranberry juice, seltzer water and place in the apple
    cup.
4. Stick in a cinnamon stick. Serve and enjoy!


ALTERNATIVES:
  • You can use apple juice instead of apple cider.
  • I didn't want to waste money on seltzer water when we wouldn't use it again, so I used a sparkling cranberry juice.
  • For younger kids, use a straw!

  2. I'm in the Midwest also (although I'm from New England). I also recently posted about going apple picking! My favorite thing to do on a snowy day is to sit by the fire with some hot apple cider (although I admit that I add Grand Marnier to mine). Can't wait to try it in a apple "cup", thanks for the great idea!
