Be Thankful Mule

 This is perfect for Thanksgiving, fall or anytime.

I used pure maple syrup for this recipe.

4 - 6 oz. bourbon

2 - 3 c. cider

2 T.  each: brown sugar, pure maple syrup

pinch cinnamon 

Ice

Drizzle some maple syrup & brown sugar on 2 clean plates.

For each cocktail:

Place a glass upside down in the syrup, the brown sugar to coat glasses. 

Place glass in freezer to chill for a few minutes.

In a cocktail shaker combine ice, brown sugar, cinnamon, syrup and bourbon. 

Add some of the cider, put lid on shaker and shake for a few seconds. 

Remove glass from freezer, remove lid from shaker and strain cocktail in glass. 

Serves 4.
