Hey, Reader!
I can't let fall pass by without sharing recipes that star one of my favorite flavors — cinnamon! Just a sprinkle gives drinks (and baked goods, and breakfast, and coffee... the list goes on) a cozy element that is unmatched as the weather turns.
I love cinnamon syrup to add a splash of cinnamon to my cocktails, but my current obsession is cinnamon dolce syrup for added notes of vanilla. Cinnamon lovers can amp up the flavor with a cinnamon sugar rim and a sprinkle of cinnamon or cinnamon stick as a garnish! For something stronger, homemade cinnamon whiskey is hard to beat (and it makes a great gift).
These drinks harness the sugar, spice and everything nice that cinnamon brings to the table:
cinnamon toast crunch cocktail
This dessert drink is inspired by the nostalgic taste of childhood cereal (and milk, of course). This cinnamon-forward martini-style drink is warm and cozy, making it perfect for chilly fall days.
apple pie shots
With all the flavors of the classic pie, these shots are sweet, spiced and endlessly sippable! They're perfect for fall parties, tailgates or anytime you need a taste of dessert in drink form.
homemade apple cider
Apple cider may be the ultimate cozy fall drink, especially when made at home! It's the perfect blend of sweet and spicy to enjoy on its own, or mixed into a drink like the apple cider mojito.
fireball eggnog
The warmth of traditional eggnog meets the bold kick of cinnamon-infused whiskey in this twist on a seasonal favorite. It may just become your new favorite holiday tradition!
cinnamon white russian
The white Russian, a creamy coffee cocktail, is a classic for good reason, but with cinnamon? It may just top the original! Give this sipper a go and decide just how spiced you prefer it.
Let these drinks spice up the season — hit 'reply' and let me know which one you're going to try first!
Cheers!
