Simply Spiked Cider with Oven Baked Apple Crisps

This simply spiked cider is served with warm oven baked apple crisps.

Some Mondays just drive you to drink, don’t they?

This past one was one of them for me.

As if the first day of the work week doesn’t suck enough as it is, waking up Monday morning knowing your week doesn’t end until a red eye flight home Saturday morning from a west coast work trip takes the sucktasticness of the day to a whole other level.

A level which requires booze.

Spike apple cider rimmed with sugar and cinnamon and fun crispy apple chips to be exact. This recipe baked the chips in the oven but you can also make dehydrated apples using a dehydrator if you have one.

Is there anything better than a warm mug of spiked cider on a cold fall day while you wait for dinner to cook?

In this case the answer is yes.

And it involves your husband not watching 25 year old Miami Vice episodes on Netflix while doing so.

Because if Monday didn’t drive you to drink, 1983 Don Johnson will.
