Apple Cider Mule

Healthy Fact of the Day

While the Apple Cider Mule is a festive cocktail, it's important to remember that alcoholic beverages should be consumed in moderation. Apple cider contains some vitamins and antioxidants, particularly vitamin C. Ginger beer, often used in mules, may have some digestive benefits due to its ginger content. To make this drink a bit healthier, you could use freshly pressed apple juice instead of cider for more nutrients and less sugar. For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the vodka and increase the apple cider and ginger beer portions. Remember that while this drink contains some fruit juice, it shouldn't be considered a significant source of nutrition. As with all alcoholic beverages, it's high in empty calories, so enjoy responsibly and in moderation as part of a balanced lifestyle.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Even if you’ve eaten a product safely before, always check the label each time you buy it. Manufacturers occasionally reformulate recipes, change suppliers, or add new allergen warnings.
