Apple Cinnamon Sparkler: The Drink of Your Dreams!

Ever been chilling on a Sunday, craving something super refreshing but also cozy? Like, you want the vibe of a fall day but it’s actually sunny and warm outside? Yup, I was totally in that mood yesterday! So, I whipped up this Apple Cinnamon Sparkler that’s basically like autumn in a glass. Seriously, it’s a vibe! 🍏✨

Main dish photo — *The finished dish — looks amazing, right?*

Okay, Let’s Talk Ingredients:

Alright, picture this—strolling through the grocery store, and you’re getting all the goodies. Grab 2 cups of apple juice (I go for the lightly spiced stuff—trust me, it makes a difference), then 1 cup of coconut water (so refreshing!), cinnamon (ground, of course), and a bit of nutmeg. Oh, and don’t forget Vanilla Extract—the alcohol-free kind, because who needs the fuzziness when you’ve got this glorious drink? 😅 Also, a smidge of brown sugar if you’re feeling sweet, and we can’t forget the sparkling water—the star of the show! Plus, some cute apple slices and cinnamon sticks for that extra touch.

So Here’s Why I Make This Constantly:

Okay, picture this: it’s a balmy afternoon, the sun’s shining, and I’m in my backyard, lounging with friends. I made this Apple Cinnamon Sparkler for the squad last summer, and it was a hit! I literally saw faces light up when they took a sip—like, award-winning smiles all around! It’s just such a fun drink, and it’s sooo easy to whip up. Plus, it feels like I’m doing some fancy mixology, but really, I’m just stirring some stuff in a pitcher. 😂

The One Trick That Changes Everything:

Another beautiful angle of the dish — *Just as gorgeous from this angle too!*

Here’s the scoop—right before you serve, you gotta add the sparkling water. Like, you wanna do this last minute! It gives it that fizz that makes your taste buds do a little happy dance! Just gently stir it in, or you’ll lose all that bubbly magic. Nobody wants flat sparkler vibes!

Don’t Mess This Up (My Top Tips):

1. Cinnamon Overload: Don’t go crazy with the cinnamon! Trust me on this; too much makes it taste like a spice rack exploded in your drink.
2. Ice, Ice Baby: Fill those glasses with ice! It keeps everything nice and cold, which is exactly what we want.
3. Taste Test: Always taste as you go! If you find it needs more sweetness, just add a bit of brown sugar.

How to Keep Them From Disappearing (Or, How to Store Them):

So, here’s the thing—this drink is best enjoyed fresh. But if you have leftovers (which like, good luck with that!), just store it in the fridge for a day or two. Just don’t add the sparkling water until you’re ready to serve it! Otherwise, it’ll go flat and that’s just sad. 😢

If You Liked This, You’ll Probably Like These Too:

If you’re vibing with this, you might wanna check out my Berry Citrus Spritzer or maybe the Minty Lemonade? Both are total crowd-pleasers and perfect for those sunny days! ☀️

So, what drink screams “you” this summer? Hit me up! 🍹💬
