Step-by-Step Instructions for Caramel Apple Cider Crush

Begin by preparing your rocks glass for the Caramel Apple Cider Crush. Moistening the rim with a fresh apple slice ensures that the cinnamon-sugar adheres well. Dip the rim of the glass into a plate filled with cinnamon-sugar, coating it evenly for that extra touch of sweetness. Set the glass aside while you get the ice ready.
Fill the rimmed glass generously with crushed ice, about three-quarters full.
Pour 2 oz of crisp apple cider over the crushed ice.
Slowly pour in 2 oz of salted caramel vodka over the cider, stirring gently.
Top your drink with 2 oz of ginger ale, adjusting to your taste preference for fizz.
Garnish your Caramel Apple Cider Crush with a few fresh apple slices.
Serve immediately while it's still cold and effervescent.
