Then pour the mixture into 2-3 glasses (depending on your glass size). Add ice to each glass.*Garnish each with an apple slice, half a sprig of Rosemary, and a star anise.notes*If you’re going to be adding this cocktail to a delicate coupe glass, you can always shake the cider, gin, and ice together in a cocktail shaker. Divide the cold mixture into the coupe glasses, then top each with the tonic water and garnishes.
