Are you ready to finally welcome fall into your life? Apple cider has always been a favorite, but every once in a while, I feel the need to mix up the traditional flavors and try something new! This sweet and tangy lemonade cider is a perfect fall pairing that will have you falling in love with this special time of year all over again.

One of my favorite things to do is sit outside on a beautiful fall day and enjoy a break from my busy schedule. I love that I can enjoy a crisp and refreshing drink during the weirdly warm afternoons (in Missouri, you never know what kind of weather you will find day-to-day). And when serving this cider warm, it is a wonderful addition to a crisp and relaxing autumn evening spent at home on the back porch.
