How To Serve The Viral Apple Crisp Refresher

Since this drink is made with carbonated Olipop, I recommend preparing each serving fresh. You could also turn this into a punch by multiplying the ingredients by the number of servings you need and adding them to a punch bowl.

Apple Crisp Refresher Substitutions & Variations

  • Caramel – Store-bought caramel sauce or homemade caramel sauce both work great in this recipe.
  • Cinnamon – If you prefer, you can omit ground cinnamon from the refresher, but it does add that cozy fall flavor!
  • Apple Cider – Fresh, local cider is best, but if you can’t get your hands on any, then store-bought apple cider will be fine. If apple cider isn’t available, apple juice can be used.
  • Flavors – Apple cider/juice can be swapped out for white grape juice, pear juice, or cran-apple juice for a flavor variation.
  • Crisp Apple Olipop – Ginger ale, sparkling water, or lemon-lime soda such as Sprite, Sierra Mist, or 7-UP can be used in place of Olipop.
  • Fun Rim – Dress this Crisp Refresher up even more by dipping the rim of your glass in caramel sauce and then rolling it in cinnamon-sugar.
  • Slushie – For an even more refreshing drink, you can turn this Apple Crisp Refresher into a slushie! To do so, blend the ice with the apple cider, then top the drink with Olipop. A great option for those warmer fall days!
  • Adult Apple Crisp Refresher – For an alcoholic apple crisp refresher, try adding caramel vodka, whisky, bourbon, or spiced rum to this drink.
  • Dirty Soda – Top with a splash of heavy cream for a dirty version of this fun fall drink.
