Even though I’m 100% summer person and very much dislike cold, there’s something magical about Fall. Cuddling under the blankets watching HGTV or binging Netflix while sipping something DELISH. So, for all you vinas like me, I’ve gathered some delicious fall drinks to make for your friends (or, you know, enjoy by yourself too):
APPLE CIDER MIMOSAS
2 tbsp coconut sugar
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
1 cup apple cider
1 bottle champagne
On a small plate, combine sugar and cinnamon. Dip champagne flutes in water to wet the rims, then dip in cinnamon sugar mixture. Fill champagne flutes 1/4 full with apple cider, then top off with champagne.
CARAMEL APPLE MARTINI
1 cup apple cider
1/2 cup caramel vodka
1/4 cup butterscotch schnapps
Sliced fresh apple, caramel, and / or cinnamon sugar for garnish.
Rim your martini glass with caramel or cinnamon sugar, or both. To get the cinnamon sugar to stick to the glass, dip the rim in a little apple cider first. Combine the apple cider, caramel vodka, and butterscotch schnapps in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake and pour into the rimmed martini glass and garnish with a thin slice of apple.
CRANBERRY MARGARITAS:
1 1/2 cups cranberry juice
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup tequila
1/2 cup orange-flavored liqueur (Cointreau or Triple Sec)
Stir all ingredients together until blended. Serve over ice in sugar- or salt rimmed glasses. Garnish with fresh cranberries and lime wedges.
PUMPKIN PIE COCKTAIL
1 cup Kahlúa Pumpkin Spice
1/2 cup hazelnut liqueur
1/2 cup coconut milk (canned, heavy)
1 tbsp pumpkin puree
¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
