Apple Crisp Fizz

The apple crisp you can pour.

We’ve borrowed the brown sugar and warm spices from apple crisp for this fizzy little fall drink. Apple juice and our Original Apple Cider Vinegar give it a good double dose of apple, with freshly grated nutmeg over the top. If you have a bottle of apple brandy tucked away, a splash is lovely here, too.
