Fireball Whiskey Hot Apple Cider is a warm, cinnamon-spiced cocktail that combines sweet apple cider with the fiery kick of Fireball whiskey. Perfect for chilly evenings or festive gatherings, it’s a cozy drink that blends sweetness, spice, and a touch of whiskey heat in every sip.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup apple cider (fresh or bottled)
  • 1.5 oz Fireball cinnamon whiskey
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon or 1 cinnamon stick
  • 2–3 whole cloves (optional)
  • 1 tsp brown sugar or honey (optional, to taste)
  • Lemon or orange slice (optional, for garnish)
  • Whipped cream or caramel drizzle (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, heat the apple cider over medium heat.
  2. Add cinnamon and cloves, and warm until steaming but not boiling.
  3. Stir in brown sugar or honey if you prefer a sweeter flavor.
  4. Remove from heat and pour the hot cider into a mug.
  5. Add the Fireball whiskey and stir to combine.
  6. Garnish with a cinnamon stick, citrus slice, or top with whipped cream and caramel drizzle if desired.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use high-quality apple cider for the best flavor—unfiltered or fresh-pressed works best.
  • Adjust sweetness to taste with honey, brown sugar, or caramel syrup.
  • For a stronger cinnamon flavor, let the cider steep with the spices longer before straining.
  • Keep it warm in a slow cooker for gatherings and add whiskey to individual mugs before serving.
