Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Cider Slush
  1. Begin by pouring apple cider into a gallon-sized resealable bag. Ensure to remove as much air as possible, seal it tightly, and then place it flat in the freezer for about 3-4 hours or overnight.
  2. Once your apple cider is frozen solid, take the bag out of the freezer. To break the apple cider into manageable chunks, run the bag under warm water for a few seconds.
  3. In a blender, combine the frozen apple cider chunks with a handful of ice cubes, about a cup of cold apple cider, a scoop of brown sugar, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour the icy Apple Cider Slush into chilled glasses, filling them generously. Garnish with apple slices or mini donuts for a festive touch.
