Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar
  • ground cinnamon, to taste
  • 6 ounces spiced apple cider, plus more, to taste
  • ice, to taste
  • 3 ounces tequila
  • 1 ounce orange liqueur
  • 1/2 ounce orange juice
  • 1/2 ounce maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon egg whites
  • 2 ounces sparkling mineral water

Directions

Step 1 -In a shallow plate, add the turbinado sugar and the cinnamon and whisk to combine.

Step 2 -In a separate, shallow plate, add the extra apple cider.

Step 3 -Dip the rims of your intended serving glasses into the apple cider.

Step 4 -Dip the cider-coated rims of the serving glasses in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, trying to evenly and completely coat the rims.
