Nothing says "New England Fall" quite like a steaming mug of hot cider, but this version is strictly for the grown-ups (and the young at heart who appreciate a good kick). By introducing Maple Cider Vinegar, you cut through the sugary sweetness of the local cider, adding a complex tang that highlights the spiced rum and warm aromatics. It’s basically a cozy sweater in a mug.
