5 Fabulous Fall Cocktails
I love fall and all things fall. I also love a good cocktail. So, I jumped at the chance to write a blog with some amazing fall cocktails. For your enjoyment, my husband and I also rated them on a scale of 1-5 stars with 5 being the highest. I highly recommend drinking one of these while watching Hocus Pocus and putting up some decorations.

Fall in the East Side
My rating: 3 stars
Husband’s rating: 3 stars
First up, a mixed drink using a cider from Austin East Ciders. Find the recipe here. Tip: they use their own house-made pumpkin butter, so I used a bit of Pumpkin Spice coffee creamer as a substitute.

Mulled Wine
My rating: 5 stars
Husband’s rating: 4 stars
A friend of mine told me Mulled wine was her favorite fall cocktail. After trying it for the first time, I can’t believe I never tried it before. I can safely say it is now one of my favorite drinks ever. I used this recipe.

Hot cider with rum
My rating: 4 stars
Husband’s rating: 4 stars
I have no real recipe for this. It’s just something I put together back in college in Ohio. It’s super simple too. I simply heat a cup of cider in the microwave and add rum to taste. I usually also make this in a large batch on the stove for friends at Halloween. You can use either powdered cider, or a jug of cider.

Apple Cider mimosa
My rating: 3 stars
Husband’s rating: 4 stars
Another easy no recipe drink. Just throw together some champagne and apple cider as you would a regular orange juice mimosa. This is a nice fall brunch drink.

Pumpkin Spice White Russian
My rating: 5 stars
Husband’s rating: 5 stars
I love White Russians, and I love pumpkin spice. Throw them together and it’s basically my favorite drink on this list. The recipe calls for no milk, but I added some in because that’s how I like my White Russians. I also sprinkled some cinnamon on top (I might try nutmeg later).
