Apple Cranberry Highball

Crisp, tart, and just a little bit festive, this cocktail captures the best of Canadian autumn. Rye whisky anchors the drink with warmth, while fresh-pressed apple cider and cranberry juice add brightness. Finished with hard cider and rosemary, it's refreshing yet comforting — a perfect bridge between seasons.
