A Pinch of Salt Makes Cider Cocktails Pop
Two drops of saline solution (or a tiny pinch of salt) brightens apple flavor and tames bitterness in any cider drink.
Make a saline solution by dissolving 1 part salt in 4 parts warm water and keep it in a dropper bottle. Two drops per drink is plenty — you shouldn't taste salt, just more apple.
