Ingredients
- 6 oz. ginger-infused apple cider
- Thin slice of fresh ginger or one piece of crystallized, candied ginger
- 1 tsp. honey
- 2 oz. bourbon (Maker’s Mark or Jim Beam are preferred)

Instructions
- First – Ginger-infuse the cider: Peel and chop the ginger. Bring apple cider to a boil in a nonaluminum pot. Add several slices of cut and peeled ginger when cider boils. Turn heat off and steep for 30 minutes. Puree this mixture in a blender and strain through cheesecloth. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Reviews
Excellent! Depending on the cider, you could use less or leave out the honey – it was plenty sweet. I also used organic grated ginger from The Ginger People instead of fresh, and it worked great.
