Yummy Caramel Apple Cider
"We discovered this yummy drink at Starbucks a few years back. I made it a mission to figure out how to make it at home. Our family has enjoyed our homemade version for a couple years now and think it's better than Starbucks. It tastes best with homemade whipped cream instead of other substitutions, so it takes a little bit more work - but you won't regret it. It's sooooo good! You can use cinnamon extract in place of the Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce syrup. It's a sweet, hot drink - Enjoy!"

This is just like the Starbucks drink- very good copy! It's very sweet, next time I'll cut back on the brown sugar and add a bit more cinnamon syrup. Thanks for posting!
