This recipe is sponsored by Cointreau. This bright, well-spiced adaptation of the Cosmopolitan plays with classic cider notes to create a cocktail that is refreshing enough for the late-summer heat, but nods to beloved fall tastes. The unique and balanced flavors of Cointreau elevate the mix of apple cider, cranberry juice, vodka and lemon. A cinnamon-sugar rim conjures the essence of a spiced orange-apple cider, ideal for thinking ahead to sweater weather.
