Diane and I have been having a great time trying different cocktails that use the same main ingredient – Lapacek’s unpasteurized, un-preserved apple cider. 

It all started with a slow Friday and we decided to mix some Fireball with cider live on Instagram.  We received some amazing feedback from customers and online folks so we kept mixing weekly! It now even has a name – Cider After Dark. You can watch the first video above!  If you enjoy it please subscribe to the channel and tell your friends!  And don’t worry – we have plans to keep on trying more cocktails as the season continues and perhaps we’ll even freeze some cider so we can keep it going throughout the year.

The 2018 apple season started out with not the best weather – it rained and rained and rained some more.  One afternoon on a whim, my mother-in-law, Diane and I decided to mix a fun apple cider drink.  We started with Fireball Whiskey and our unpasteurized unpreserved apple cider and we turned on the live feed on instagram.  This is what happened …

Our customers came in and told us just how much they enjoyed the “episode”.  We came up with our ideal cider to fireball ration.  1 cup of cider to two shots of Fireball.  Yumm!  It didn’t take much for me to twist Diane’s arm into doing more testing of drinks.  If you want to see all of our videos be sure to subscribe to “Cider After Dark.”  We’ll continue to keep mixing as long as you keep watching!

Sometimes when it’s a bit slow in the store we just have to try out a new fun beverage!  Check out Diane and me mixing our own unpasteurized, unpreserved apple cider with Fireball!

WE concluded that approximately 8oz of cider mixed with a shot and a half of fireball whiskey is the perfect combination!
