This Cider Bourbon Smash - Apple Cider Mocktail calls for fresh apple cider, non-alcoholic bourbon and … wait for it … apple cider vinegar! Don’t knock it ‘til you’ve tried it, friends. Unfiltered apple cider vinegar adds health benefits plus a tinge of tartness to this apple cider mocktail that is perfected by the quick stir of a cinnamon stick, a slice of apple and a sprig of fresh thyme.
Fill a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice cubes and combine the alcohol-free bourbon, fresh apple cider and apple cider vinegar. Shake, shake, shake until thoroughly mixed and chilled, about 30 seconds.
Fill a cocktail glass or 8-ounce mason jar with ice and, using a strainer, pour the Apple Cider Mocktail over the ice.
Garnish with a cinnamon stick and a sprig of time and serve.
