It's fall and nothing smells like fall more like apples and cinnamon with a crisp autumn breeze. I want to thank Will Rogers at Donna White PR for feeding into my new sabering habit, (yes I'm addicted) by sending me a bottle of Nino Franco Rustico NV Prossecco and the ingredients to make this wonderful fall cocktail.
Nino Franco is one of the oldest estates in the Valdobbiadene region and uses the traditional method to produce their Prosecco. In addition to the Prosecco, I was sent a bottle of Root 23 Maple Cinnamon simple syrup. Root 23 was founded by two busy moms in Columbus Ohio. They use only natural ingredients to craft their collection of flavored simple syrups. The only ingredient I was missing was apple cider. Since I was in the Hudson Valley last week and picked up some Minard Farms Apple Cider.
With the complete set of ingredients and company knocking on my door I thought we'd celebrate fall with the Nino Franco Maple Cinnamon Prosecco Cocktail.
