Enjoy as it cools and warms you up!
I love the cooler days and spectacular colors of Fall and I wanted a cocktail that embodies the feel of a warm fireplace and the comfort of home on a cold day. This drink contains two of my favorite things: apple cider and whiskey. Growing up in Michigan (incredible fall foliage), I’d say, conservatively, that I drank at least a swimming pool’s worth of apple cider over the years. It’s hands down the best non-alcoholic drink on the planet. And when you heat it up, add some fall spices and whiskey, you get a drink that’s perfect for warming up those wonderful cooler days of Fall.
