Instructions
Prep the Glass
Place a small amount of maple syrup on a small platePlace your glass upside down with the rim touching the maple syrup. Make sure to coat the whole edge.
Pour a layer of sugar on another small plate. Now place your maple syrup-coated glass rim in the sugar. Rotate the edge around the sugar to coat it thoroughly.
Slice the Apple
Turn your apple so the top and bottom are horizontal on your cutting board. Then take your knife and cut right into the apple, going vertically. You should have a nice round apple slice rather than a wedge.
Remove seeds from the middle of the apple slice.
Make the Cocktail
Add crushed ice to your sugar rim glass. I like to fill the glass with about ¾ ice.
Pour apple cider and bourbon into the glass. Stir with a cinnamon stick.
