Apple Pie Shots A Fun Thanksgiving Cocktail Mantitlement Recipes

Steps:

• To make the fig-infused honey syrup, warm honey, dried figs, and ½ cup water in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring to completely dissolve honey. Keep warm 10 minutes, lowering heat if needed to avoid coming to a simmer. Do not let boil. Remove from heat, let cool, covered, 10 minutes. Pour fig mixture into a blender and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a resealable jar. Makes enough syrup for about 10 drinks; store refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.
• To make the cocktail, add bourbon, riesling, St-Germain, apple cider, lemon juice, and fig-infused honey syrup to a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake until well chilled, about 15 seconds. Strain into a stemmed cocktail glass, coupe, or small wine glass. Garnish with apple slice (or dehydrated apple slice) and serve up.

Steps:

• Place the apple cider, apple juice, cinnamon sticks, and sugar into a large pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat, and discard the cinnamon sticks. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then stir in the grain alcohol. Pour into quart-size canning jars, seal with the lids and rings, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
