What if you could combine two of the most iconic fall flavors—chai and apple cider? What if there was an incredibly easy recipe that anyone could whip up, and it would turn out absolutely delicious?
Well, I’ve got some great news! I tried apple chaider earlier this week, and it was absolutely amazing. It’s ridiculously simple to make and tastes unbelievably good. Today, I’m excited to share a super easy chai apple cider (or “apple chai-der,” if you prefer) recipe with you.
Chai and apple cider are the ultimate fall pairings. Chai is the perfect fall beverage, especially with October being Chai Month, and apple cider is a staple during apple season. Both are beloved for their comforting, warming qualities—apple cider for its sweet, slightly tart, and cinnamon flavors. But why not elevate it even more? You’ve already got cinnamon in there, so why not add a few extra chai spices to create the perfect blend of these two seasonal favorites?
That’s exactly what inspired me to come up with this chai apple cider recipe, or chaider, as some like to call it!
