It balances the richness of the day’s dishes and leans into the flavors of fall. Apple cider, gin, and the floral notes of elderflower make a deliciously sippable drink. Opt for the freshest apple cider you can find. For a non-alcoholic option, simply up the tonic water and skip the gin and liqueur. Add thinly sliced lemon rounds to the pretty apple garnish for even more glam. Ingredients 6 cups cold apple cider 3 cups gin 1 1/2 cups tonic water or elderflower tonic water 3/4 cup elderflower liqueur (such as St-Germain) 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1 Honeycrisp apple Directions Combine apple cider, gin, tonic water or elderflower tonic water, elderflower liqueur, and lemon juice in a large pitcher or punch bowl.
