Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp Frontier Co-op Organic, Cane Sugar
- 1 tsp Frontier Co-op Organic Apple Pie Spice
- 1 small red sweet apple
- 4 Frontier Co-op Organic, Fair Trade Ceylon Cinnamon Sticks
- 1 bottle champagne
- 2 cups pasteurized apple cider, chilled
Directions
- On a small, rimmed plate, gently whisk together cane sugar and apple pie spice. Spread out mixture so the edge is bigger in diameter than the rim of your glass. Set aside.
- Dip the rim of each glass in a shallow bowl of water or apple cider, or rub an apple slice along the rim. Dip glass rim in sugar-spice mixture until rim is fully coated. Repeat with all four glasses.
- Just before serving, cut four thin apple slices and place one at the bottom of each glass along with a cinnamon stick. Tuck cinnamon stick under apple slice so it doesn’t float to the top.
- Into each glass, pour champagne until bubbles have settled and glass is half full. Add apple cider until glass is full.
