It’s APPLE picking season, but the issue becomes
What do you do with that bushel of apples the fresh cider that you bought at the farm stand? Well, have NO FEAR, we’ve got a few FUN recipes for both the family and the GROWN-UPS in the family.
While ghosts and goblins go door to door, we’ll be enjoying a bit of Apple Cider Sangria around the pool. October is still HOT here in South Florida, so a COLD drink that celebrates the season is perfect. I’ll be making a pitcher of this delicious apple drink and keep a Magic Chef portable ice maker (I love that it makes fresh cubes in only 7-minutes) nearby to keep things C-O-O-L.
