Autumn Spice

For a cold version, fill a highball glass with ice. Add the ginger liqueur, apple cider, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Stir gently to combine. If desired, include a splash of dark rum or whiskey.

For a hot version, simmer the apple cider in a small saucepan over the stove. If you wish, add a cinnamon stick for extra warmth and aroma. Once heated, incorporate the lemon juice and ginger liqueur. Continue to heat briefly, then pour into a small cup or mug.
