Notes
- Both Champagne and Prosecco work well, but Prosecco offers a slightly sweeter flavor, which pairs nicely with the apple cider.
- The cinnamon-sugar rim adds an extra touch of sweetness and warmth. If you prefer a less sweet drink, you can skip this step.
- For a festive presentation, use a small star-shaped cookie cutter to cut the apple slices into fun shapes before garnishing.
- Ensure the apple cider and Champagne are well-chilled before serving for the best flavor and fizz.
