Cider Cocktail Series
A few simple ingredients, one good bottle of cider, and a reason to slow down.
Cherry Grove Cosmopolitan
A bold twist on a classic. Vodka, orange liqueur, and lemon meet the deep cherry notes of our Cherry On Cider for a cocktail that’s equal parts bright and smooth.
Ingredients
• 2 oz Vodka
• ½ oz Orange Liqueur (Triple Sec or Cointreau)
• ½ oz Fresh Lemon Juice
• 2 oz Dead Horse Cherry On Cider
Serving
Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice. Shake well, then strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with a lemon or orange twist.
Manitoba Mule
Crisp vodka and fresh lime meet our Citrus Ginger Craft Soda, kicked up with spicy ginger beer. Bright, warming, and easy to make when the nights turn cold.
Ingredients
• 2 oz Vodka
• ½ oz Fresh Lime Juice
• 3 oz Dead Horse Ginger Lime Apple Cider
• 2 oz Ginger Beer
Serving
Fill a copper mug with ice. Add vodka and lime juice, top with soda and ginger beer, and stir gently. Garnish with a lime wedge and enjoy.
Prairie Rosé Sangria
Our Life Is Rosé Cider pairs with orange liqueur and a splash of sparkling water for a simple winter spritz that still feels like a treat.
Ingredients
• 4 oz Dead Horse Life Is Rosé Cider
• 1 oz Orange Liqueur
• 2 oz Sparkling Water
Serving
Fill a glass with ice. Add cider and orange liqueur, then top with sparkling water. Stir gently and garnish with an orange slice or twist.
