Ingredients

  • 3 cups apple cider or juice, chilled, divided
  • 1 cup caramel ice cream topping, plus additional for dipping
  • 2 cinnamon sticks (3 inches)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Gold sprinkles
  • Ice cubes
  • 1 bottle (750 ml) brut champagne, chilled
  • Optional: Apple slices and additional cinnamon sticks

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup cider, 1 cup caramel topping, cinnamon sticks and cinnamon to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until liquid is reduced to 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly; discard cinnamon sticks.
  2. Place sprinkles and additional caramel topping in separate shallow bowls. Hold each glass upside down and dip rim in caramel topping, then dip in sprinkles.
