Preparation Steps

Run a slice of lemon or orange around the rim of a highball glass, dip the rim into sugar to coat evenly.
Using a vegetable peeler, create a long strip of orange peel for garnish.
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine ginger simple syrup, fresh orange juice, and lemon juice. Shake for about 15 seconds.
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice and top with chilled sparkling apple cider.
Hold the orange peel strip over the drink and gently squeeze to release oils before placing it as a garnish.
Stir gently with a straw or stirrer to combine flavors before serving.
