Autumn sangria with seasonal fruits

Autumn sangria is made with sparkling red wine and seasonal fruits: oranges and pomegranate. Enhance their flavor with orange and pomegranate liqueurs. For spices, add just a fragrant sprig of rosemary. The beauty of this cocktail is that everyone loves sangria, and also how easy it is to make for a crowd: just throw everything in a pitcher except the wine and let it steep in the refrigerator. When guests arrive, top up with sparkling wine and serve with ice.

Pear Martini

Why is autumn all about apples? It's also the season for sweet, juicy pears! Giada de Laurentiis uses pears to create her enchanting autumn martini, just the right amount of sweet and slightly spicy. Garnish each glass with a pear slice and enjoy!

Bourbon Cranberry Cocktail

Cranberry is one of the most popular fall flavors, especially when simmered with orange juice and cinnamon. It's the starting point for homemade cranberry sauce... and this cocktail is made with bourbon! Garnish each glass with an orange twist and enjoy.

Autumn alcoholic cocktail "Old Fashioned"

A pinch of ground cinnamon and a splash of apple liqueur will transform your classic Old Fashioned cocktail into autumn mode, when you want to enjoy the cozy combination of fruit and warming spices. Swap the traditional whiskey for Calvados and serve with a cocktail cherry. Simple and delicious!

Chocolate-coffee beer

A double dose of coffee (strong espresso and coffee liqueur) and sweet blackcurrant liqueur best impart a chocolatey flavor to a strong beer.

Mulled wine made from apple juice

Ree Drummond makes her autumnal version of mulled wine using natural non-alcoholic cider (unfiltered apple juice), orange peel, sweet and tart apples, fresh cranberries, aromatic spices, and a splash of apple brandy. The drink is warming, aromatic, and delicious, like autumn. What else do you need after a long day of apple picking in the orchard?!

Dutch Apple Pie Cocktail

This apple pie-flavored alcoholic cocktail is delicious, but if you want to add a little sweetness, soak light-colored raisins in Calvados for 24 hours and use the infused spirit in the cocktail. Serve the plump, "boozy" raisins as an appetizer with the drink.

American Pie Cocktail

This super-delicious alcoholic cocktail from Guy Fieri is incredibly easy to make. Guy combines whiskey, apple liqueur, and cranberry juice, then pours it into glasses filled with ice. This stunning autumn drink comes together in just two minutes. For a beautiful presentation, garnish with a thin slice of fresh apple.

Pear cocktail with brandy and pink pepper

This seasonal brandy cocktail will delight you with a rich, spicy autumn flavor thanks to simple syrup made with honey instead of regular sugar and freshly ground pink peppercorns. A squeeze of lemon juice will cut through the pear's sweetness with a bright citrus note.

Pomegranate Sparkler Cocktail

Make a Sparkling cocktail as an aperitif, with a viscous vermouth twist. Make it with slightly sparkling mineral water, add garnet liqueur, and garnish with pomegranate seeds.

Champagne cocktail with pear and brandy

There are many ways to enjoy pears (fresh, baked in desserts, topped with pork, and more), and they're all delicious. But one of our favorites is adding the seasonal fruit to a glass of brandy or champagne. It's the perfect treat after finishing a cocktail!

Hot alcoholic cocktail "Apple Toddy"

This perfect fall alcoholic cocktail is made with simple ingredients in just 15 minutes. A few spices, orange, non-alcoholic apple cider (or unfiltered juice), and brandy combine to create a fragrant, warming drink that relaxes and eases cold symptoms.

Cider and bourbon cocktail with honey

Fresh ginger and apples, sparkling cider, and a generous shot of bourbon—this autumn cocktail is sure to please everyone! Moderately sweet, fruity, and spicy, with refreshing notes of lemon and mint, it's the perfect complement to your mood on a golden autumn day.

Martini with bourbon, beer, and maple syrup

To make the cocktail as sweet and savory as possible, Giada De Laurentiis recommends shaking the bourbon, beer, and syrup with ice cubes and serving in chilled martini glasses. She garnishes each cocktail with a chili pepper, which not only adds a subtle kick but also looks incredibly beautiful.

Alcoholic cocktail "Gingerbread"

If you're not a fan of dark spirits, don't worry, there are plenty of other ways to get into the holiday spirit. This gingerbread-inspired cocktail from Rachel Ray features all the autumnal flavors we know and love, and instead of brandy, it uses a blend of vodka and ginger liqueur.

Sweet Potato Pie Cocktail

This unusual cocktail name says it all: you'll truly taste the spicy flavor of sweet potato pie! It's made with tequila and sweet potato and pear juice. The smoky tequila and cinnamon give the drink a warm aroma. Shake well for a perfectly creamy texture.

Autumn Full Moon Cocktail

This spicy cocktail made with vodka, apple juice, and pumpkin beer is perfect for the fall holidays, especially Halloween, or anytime you just want to savor the flavors of autumn. Moderately sweet, with fragrant hints of spice, it's served in glasses garnished with graham cracker crumbs.

Hot Ginger Toddy

A Hot Toddy is a warming British drink made with whiskey, honey, and lemon. Sometimes flavored with aromatic herbs, it's enjoyed before bed or in cold weather as a powerful cold remedy. Make an American-style Hot Toddy with aromatic bourbon and ginger and serve it instead of the usual mulled wine.

White Cranberry Mimosa

This autumnal take on the Mimosa is made with white cranberry juice instead of orange juice and served with a sprig of fresh rosemary. White cranberry juice, unlike red, is less tart and adds a sweet note to the champagne. It's the perfect drink for Sunday brunch.

Squirrel Pantry Cocktail

The main ingredient in this autumn cocktail is spiced rye whiskey, which you can make at home. Simply pour a bottle of whiskey over orange, cloves, and a cinnamon stick, let it steep for about 24 hours, and it will develop a wonderful citrusy-spicy aroma and flavor. Mix the infused autumn whiskey with sherry, orange liqueur, and nut liqueur, and enjoy!

Pumpkin Cheesecake Martini

This cocktail is a true dessert you can drink! Light and creamy, it's the perfect blend of traditional fall flavors in a unique new form. Be sure to shake this martini well to ensure it's properly chilled. Serve in a frozen glass.
