Apple Pie Shot

About the Apple Pie Shot
Warm apple cider spiced with cinnamon and spiked with vanilla vodka — this is essentially a mug of hot cider that fits in a shot glass. Best served just warm rather than hot; the vodka mellows into the cider and the cinnamon does the rest. A splash of whipped cream on top and it is a slice of pie you can pour. Perfect for a Christmas table.
Substitutions
- Fireball for the cinnamon instead of a pinch of spice.
- Apple juice if cider isn't in season.
Batch version
For 12, batch 12 oz vodka and 12 oz cider with cinnamon; top to order.
