Looking for apple cider cocktails?  Try one of these easy apple cider alcoholic drinks to serve at your next party.





35 Apple Cider Drinks


Apple cider is my favorite drink for fall.  I like it cold, hot, or in an apple cider alcohol drink recipe.


I've posted several easy apple cider alcoholic drinks, so I wanted to do a big round up with all of mine plus some delicious variations from some blogging friends.  


These apple cider cocktails are perfect for parties, but most can be made by the glass as well.  


How to Make Spiced Apple Cider for Apple Cider Drinks


You can make any of these easy apple cider alcoholic drinks with cider straight from the jug.  However, you'll get a deeper flavor if you used spiced cider.


You can make this easy hot apple cider recipe in a slow cooker.  Or try this easy mulled cider recipe in the slow cooker using mulling spices.  (Use this mulling spices recipe or buy them on Etsy.)


Don't have apple cider?  Learn how to make Instant Pot apple cider.  It's not exactly the same, but it works in a pinch.


You can also use this pumpkin cider recipe in place of the apple cider for a pumpkin and apple flavor.





What Alcohol is Best With Apple Cider?


Apple cider is versatile, and you can make a cider drink alcohol with different kinds of alcohol.  Darker liquors like rum and bourbon complement it well.


However, you can also use vodka, tequila, whiskey, flavored whiskey, or even sparkling champagne.
