This autumn-inspired drink uses sweet maple-flavored liqueur with apple brandy, sparkling apple cider, and a bit of lemon juice to balance it all out.
What to buy: We like Sortilège maple liqueur for its smooth and not-too-sweet blending of Canadian whisky and maple syrup.
This recipe was featured as part of our Thanksgiving for Six menu.

- 1 ounce apple brandy, such as Calvados
- 1/4 to 1/2 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice
