Notes
- Do not boil! Boiling can change the texture and evaporate the liqueur which isn't something we want for this cocktail.
- Glassware is important. Though I'd love to have this in a delicate wine glass, I'm afraid not all glass is created equal. Use a glass mug or something more festive and heat-resistant.
- The key to a great cocktail is balance. Ensure a harmonious blend of sweet, sour, bitter, and aromatic elements. Add more apple cider or honey as needed to suit your tastes.
- This hot Aperol recipe should be made and consumed immediately.
