    Sweater weather is coming, so let's get the holiday season started with these 5 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes! We love fall most of all, I mean what’s not to love? It’s the season of sugar, spice, and a whole lot of nice!

    5 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes

    5 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes

    We are talking about those cozy fall flavors we’ve all come to love. Crispy apples, zesty oranges, soothing chai, and sweet maple are just a few classic ingredients waiting to be used in your next Fall drink.

    Make the most of the cold with The Mixer’s round-up of the best fall cocktails this season. Things are about to get toasty. Happy fall y’all!

    Apple Butter Old Fashioned Cocktail

    An Apple Butter Old Fashioned cocktail is packed with the inviting flavors of warm apple pie. Made with real apple butter (just like mama used to make), this fall Old Fashioned drink is perfect as an indulgent drink with your bourbon-loving friends.

    4 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes

    Ingredients you will need to make this Apple Butter Old Fashioned cocktail

    • 2 Oz Apple cider
    • 2 Oz Wild Turkey Bourbon
    • 1 Tablespoon apple butter
    • 1 Dash of orange bitters
    • Juice of half a lemon
    • Ginger beer (to top your glass)
    • Coarse cinnamon sugar and simple syrup, for rimming
    • Thinly sliced apples and a cinnamon stick, to garnish

    How to make a Apple Butter Old Fashioned Cocktail

    Pour some simple syrup on a plate and some coarse cinnamon sugar on another. Dip the rim of your cocktail glass into the syrup and then into the sugar, twisting to coat, before adding ice cubes to the glass. 

    Combine the apple cider, apple butter, Wild Turkey, lemon juice and bitters in a cocktail shaker and give it a dry shake (in other words, a shake without ice).

    Shake vigorously until properly combined then strain into your prepared cocktail glass. Top up with ginger beer and garnish with a cinnamon stick and apple slice on the rim to serve.

    Bourbon Apple Cider Cocktail

    Fall is a season that begs to be draped in comfort and warmth. This spiced cocktail is exactly what you need to warm up on a cold night.

    4 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes

    To get those cheeks glowing, you’ll need bourbon, apple cider, vermouth and bitters. Serve your Bourbon Apple Cider over ice with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a sprig of thyme. This is a full-flavor cocktail, and the sourness of the lemon balances beautifully with the sweet notes of caramel, vanilla and apple.

    Ingredients you will need to make a Bourbon Apple Cider Cocktail

    • 2 Oz Wild Turkey Bourbon Whiskey
    • 1 Oz apple cider
    • 1 Oz Vermouth
    • 0.5 Oz lemon juice
    • 0.5 Oz orange bitters
    • Apple slices to garnish
    • A sprig of thyme to garnish
    • Ice

    How to make Bourbon Apple Cider Cocktail

    Add ice to a large mixing glass or cocktail shaker, and then pour in the bourbon, cider, sweet vermouth, lemon juice and bitters.

    Stir until chilled (about 30 seconds). Then strain into any cocktail glass of your choice and garnish with a few apple slices and a sprig of thyme!

    Manhattan Cocktail

    Meet the Manhattan: Sweet, smooth, and sophisticated. This iconic cocktail was created in the late 1800s, and the original recipe has been enjoyed ever since! It’s a whiskey-based cocktail that’s surprisingly mellow and sweet.

    4 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes

    Made with whiskey, sweet vermouth, and bitters and garnished with a maraschino cherry, it’s a simple recipe. This delicious drink is best served before dinner to welcome your guests. Although there are a few versions of the classic, the traditional Manhattan cocktail will never go out of fashion.

    Ingredients you will need to make a Manhattan Cocktail

    • 2 Oz Wild Turkey 101 Rye
    • 1 Oz Vermouth
    • 3 Drops of orange bitters
    • Orange peel to garnish
    • Ice

    How to make a Manhattan Cocktail

    Fill a mixing glass with ice, and add the whiskey, vermouth and bitters. Stir for about 30 seconds or until icy cold and then strain into a chilled coupe glass. Express an orange peel over the top of the glass, then drop it into the drink!

    Hanky Panky Cocktail

    Gin-lovers, don’t worry. We haven’t forgotten about you. Make a Hanky Panky if you want a fall (or winter) cocktail that’s packed with zesty flavors and herbal undertones.

    4 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes

    This sweet gin martini is anything but discreet: the gin makes it a little naughty, while the sweet vermouth makes it a little nice. But it’s the addition of the Italian amaro (bitters) that gives the Hanky Panky cocktail its unique and complex flavor. Best enjoyed fireside, with good friends.

    Ingredients you will need to make a Hanky Panky Cocktail

    • 1.5 Oz Gin
    • 1.5 Oz Cinzano Rosso
    • A few dashes of Fernet-Branca
    • Ice
    • Orange peel, to garnish 

    How to Make a Hanky Panky Cocktail

    Add ice to a mixing glass, followed by the gin, sweet vermouth, and amaro, and then stir until nicely chilled (around 30 seconds should do the trick). Then strain into a chilled martini or coupe glass, and add the orange peel as garnish and enjoy!

    Hot Pumpkin Pie Cocktail

    Drinkable pumpkin pie in a glass, anyone? Yeah, we thought so! If you are one of those folks who wait all year long for the arrival of the beloved pumpkin spice latte at your local coffee house, this delicious pumpkin cocktail is going to be the star of your Thanksgiving entertaining this year!

    4 Amazingly Tasty Fall Cocktail Recipes

    Made with vodka, Irish cream, pumpkin pie puree and cool whip, it is as delicious as a dessert. Serve your Hot Pumpkin Pie cocktails in warmed mugs, topped with whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon. As an extra treat, you can serve baked pumpkin pie crusts on the side for some decadent dipping.

    “Make pumpkin-infused vodka by mixing together pumpkin puree and spice, with ½ cup of vodka in a large jar. Seal and keep in the fridge for three days before using, shaking it a few times a day.” (Helena Lombard, The Mixer)

    • 2 Cups Irish cream
    • 0.5 Cup vanilla or pumpkin pie vodka
    • 4 Cups of milk
    • 1 Can of pumpkin puree
    • 1.5 Teaspoons pumpkin spice
    • Whipped cream
    • Cinnamon
    • Strips of baked pumpkin pie crust to garnish, optional

    How to make Hot Pumpkin Pie Cocktail

    Add the Irish cream, vodka, and milk to a pot and bring to the boil, then turn down the heat to a slow simmer. Stir through pumpkin puree and spices until mixed through and ladle into warmed glass mugs.

    Dollop over some whipped cream and dust with cinnamon! Serve with baked pumpkin pie crusts for dipping, if you like!
