Happy Hour: A Chilly Apple Cider Cocktail

Sep 20, 2013

When I think of apple cider, I think of steaming mugs of spicy liquid and chilly afternoons.  But since I spotted an iced apple cider cocktail on Pinterest, all I can think about is what kind of party I can host so I can serve this fruity concoction.

The blogger at Sugar and Charm offers a delightful recipe for apple cider, that on its own would be tasty enough.  Perhaps with a shot of maple whiskey?  But this is about an iced apple cider cocktail, and Sugar and Charm makes hers with her homemade apple cider and a shot of vodka.  So if you’re looking for a delicious apple cider recipe that can provide the perfect foundation of an autumn cocktail, look no further.

Vanessa Bruno At the Cable-knit mini dress ($135)

Sweater dresses and boots, sweater dresses and boots…I’m so excited.  I can barely contain myself.  And this chunky knit dress from The Outnet is perfect for weekend wear.  I’d pair it with a flat chocolate boot and coordinating tights.

If you like the look of cable, but you need to spend less, try this Old Navy dress in a handful of colors for $35.

Three Dots also made a couple of stylish sweater dresses for fall.  I love this asymmetric style with a balloon sleeve, and this colorblock dress in a muted palette.  If you’d like something similarly sleek for under-$100, try this striped dress from JCPenney.

Plus-size ladies should check out this long sleeve Michael Kors dress in black or this Spense dress in deep teal.  Petite ladies, this Labworks dress in short sleeve is a steal, and this chevron-striped dress from Trina Turk is incredible (also comes in misses size).

Happy Hour

    All your drinks look lovely – I really wanted to try the bourbon cream one and this with maple whiskey sounds great – but I’ve never been able to find those spirits in the dc metro area…..any idea where to buy?

This weekend, I got two hours to myself for the first time in months. Really to myself. My child was asleep. My dogs were asleep. Kyle was off playing cards with his friends. My house was clean, and there was nothing else to do but sit in my bed and scroll Instagram. It was glorious. […]

When I was in my 20s, I bought every trendy nail polish, eye color, and lip gloss.  Sure, I could only wear them on the weekends, but why not wear emerald green liner?  In my 30s, I became enamored with skincare and took every “must-have” product for a spin.  But in my 40s, my skin […]
