Instructions
- In a small shallow dish, mix together 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until evenly combined.
- Dip the rim of a champagne flute or wine glass into a shallow dish of water or apple cider, then dip into the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Gently twist to coat evenly. Tap off excess. Repeat for all glasses.

Notes
Use unfiltered apple cider for deeper flavor. Chill cider and prosecco well before serving. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute prosecco with sparkling apple cider or ginger ale. Prep garnishes up to an hour ahead and keep apple slices in lemon water to prevent browning.
