Today I am sharing Fab Five items for an apple cider bar. It is a fun idea to do throughout the holidays. Â Two years ago, I shared how to do a hot cocoa bar. Â This year, I saw an idea for a hot apple cider bar on Studio 5 and had to share the idea with all of you.
#1 – You have to start off with a yummy hot apple cider. I recommend my hot apple cider recipe I shared a few weeks ago. Keep the cider warm by using a hot beverage dispenser or a crock pot.
#2 – You need some flavored syrups like Torani and regular old maple syrup. Pick flavors that would go well with the cider like pumpkin spice, creme caramel, or white chocolate.
#3 – Get some ice cream. I recommend going for a higher quality ice cream. You will only need a small scoop for each cup. Again pick ice cream flavors that will pair well the cider like dulce de leche, rum raisin, or butter pecan.
#4 – Then you need some whipped cream. Â Offer several different flavors like vanilla, maple, and cinnamon.
#5 – The last of the fab five items for an apple cider bar that you need is finishing touches like cinnamon sticks, apple slices and caramel ice cream topping to drizzle over the cream. Â Now you have a fancy schmancy gourmet hot apple cider bar. Â For more ideas and flavor combos for the drinks you can check out the recipes and video from Studio 5.
