Hey Guys,Sorry for the delay on the show! With the COVID situation in the bar industry, it prevented me from getting out in time!!So this show is focused on the apple cider cocktails for the season. We are getting into colder weather and what better way to warm up on those cold nights then a hot rum beverage. We will be covering two cocktails for you as we have two different Thanksgiving Days on our calendar (Canada-October 12th and USA-November 26th).The first cocktail that we will discuss is the apple cider old-fashioned. The second, cocktail will be the apple cider mule. For both of these cocktails, you will need apple cider which I recommend getting from our local farmer's market. You will find the end product a better drink and less full of preservatives and other items they throw into commercial juices. You will also find on these drinks that the garnish plays a key role on the outcome of the drink with a cinnamon stick and slice of apple.To get the recipes for them both: https://tikicentralcanada.ca/recipes/ We also discuss the difference between regular apple cider and hard cider. How did it start and how to make it??Did you know there are two different types of pumpkins...Mark clues us in on which one you will need for that tasty pumpkin pie for dinner!!!By the way, every wonder where the phrase: "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" came from?
