This Apple Cider Bellini is the perfect fall cocktail recipe! It’s easy with only three ingredients, can be made as a single drink or as a pitcher, and is perfect for your Thanksgiving menu…or you know, a random day.
Why is Halloween not observed on a Friday night? You know, so the kids and parents have two days to recover? I think that would make all parents, kids, and teachers happier, don’t you think? Jordan and I woke up totally Halloween hungover on Tuesday; tired, sugar crashed, and cranky. I made her get dressed and sent her off to school where she is pretty much going to be miserable all day…only to have to stay up late tonight for dance class. And we came home early – at 8:00! How do we go about starting a petition to observe Halloween on a weekend…or make November 1 a holiday? Ha!
Anyway, other than waking up sick on sugar on November 1, I realized that it was NOVEMBER 1! FINALLY! It’s the real holiday season now, not some fake one. (Footnote: I hate Halloween.) It’s the month of Thanksgiving, and getting ready for Christmas, and leaves and champagne and Black Friday! Now this the start to my favorite season.
Let’s celebrate with a fall inspired cocktail, okay?
Have you ever ordered a champagne bellini? I used to order a peach one at a bar in Las Vegas that was made with peach vodka, schnapps and champagne. In fact, according to google, the definition of bellini is a cocktail made with peach juice and champagne. So, basically it’s a mimosa made with peach juice. I think most people now take it a step further and make the bellini (and mimosa, even) into any flavor juice with champagne.
(Adding the vodka is just a plus, if you ask me.)
This cocktail has only 3 ingredients and literally screams apple, in sight, smell, and taste. It sounds like it will be super sweet but it isn’t, depending on the kind of bubbles and vodka you use. Let’s talk about ingredients for a minute.
