Minimal and fall-flavored ingredients help these Apple Cider Mimosas come together quickly. The perfect brunch or after-dinner cocktail to enjoy that apple flavor.
Fall brings great things and great flavors. Apple is one of my favorite flavors for a variety of dishes, from savory to sweet, and even these very tasty Apple Cider Mimosas.
These are often made for a nice weekend brunch that I usually have with my family through the fall months. They are super easy to put together and easier to drink down.
With a caramel and cinnamon sugar rim, you get an extra pinch of flavor with each and every sip. I love drinks when there are some special ingredients on the rim, and it absolutely makes these cocktails.
If you love apple, fall, and all the things that it brings with it, you need to add these Apple Cider Mimosas to that like, you won’t regret it.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED (FULL RECIPE BELOW):
Caramel bits
Water
Granulated sugar
Ground cinnamon
Chilled apple cider
Chilled champagne
HOW TO MAKE APPLE CIDER MIMOSAS:
- Place the caramel bits and the water into a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between until melted.
- Place the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl, stir to combine.
- Take your champagne glasses, dip the rim into the melted caramel, and then into the cinnamon sugar.
- Pour 2 ounces of apple cider into each glass. Top off with champagne and garnishes if using, and serve immediately.
DO I HAVE TO USE CHAMPAGNE?
While champagne can get pricy depending on the brand, you can swap it out with Prosecco as well. This is a more budget-friendly option and also keeps that bubbly texture that we love.
CAN I USE REGULAR CARAMELS?
Absolutely, you do not have to use the bits, especially if you cannot find them. Regular square caramels can also be used and melted to rim the glasses.
You can also use a caramel sauce, I would suggest that you use a thicker caramel sauce, so it does not drip all over the place and stays in place.
CAN I ADD OTHER LIQUOR TO THIS RECIPE?
If you feel like amping up the flavor and not just having the champagne, you absolutely can. You can add an ounce of any of these liquors: caramel vodka, vanilla vodka, cinnamon roll vodka, whipped vodka, pumpkin spice vodka, or apple schnapps!
HOW TO STORE:
I would not store this at all, this needs to be made when you are ready to drink it, as we want to keep it bubbly.
TIPS AND TRICKS:
- This is a chilled drink, make sure that your champagne and apple cider are chilled.
- Rimming the glass is optional, but highly recommended.
- You can easily double this recipe to serve more people.
- Garnish with apples, cherries, cinnamon sticks, whipped cream, and more.
- Other alcohols can be added, see above on options.
- You can swap out the champagne for Prosecco.
