I can’t tell a lie. This post has been sitting here in drafts for a whole long year. Yes, I created this a year ago and somehow things got busy around here, what with adventure outside posts and Halloween posts, that I somehow missed sharing this most amazingly perfect autumn sipper.
You know I have a thing for the sippable favourites, and when the temperatures get cool, it’s time to heat up those drinks.
Given that it is apple season, and that my husband and I depart for the west-coast Cali shores in just over a month, we’re really into autumn all Canadian-style and part of that means a whole lot of apples (and toque wearing).

And what about the pulp? I threw mine into a blender and whipped it smooth and used it in place of apple sauce in a most amazing Apple Gingerbread Cake.

You always have the best ideas! I would’ve never thought to do that with the pulp, but I love knowing that I’m not putting any of it to waste. Thanks for being awesome! :)

Great idea! I love using the whole apple for this rather than starting with a bottle of processed cider.
