My favorite autumn cocktail, I used "apple pie" liquer (calvados is very expensive) and seltzer instead of sparkling apple juice. Made apple cider ice cubes so not to water down the pitcher of drinks. Served last year on T-day and got rave reviews.

This take on the old New England drink features apple brandy rather than the usual rum. Substitute applejack or plain brandy, if you like.
