From orchard-inspired flavors to warming spices, this collection of seasonal sips is made for savoring simple pleasures – one glass at a time.

Apple Cider Mule

This cozy twist on the classic Moscow Mule blends apple cider, vodka, lime juice and spicy ginger beer. It’s a delicious pour that adds a touch of flair to any outdoor get-together or game day party.  Garnish with a cinnamon stick or apple slice for a festive touch. This mule pairs beautifully with a cheese board featuring sharp cheddar and toasted nuts.

Pomegranate Sunrise Mocktail

Here’s a go-to autumn drink that works well for baby showers, weekdays meals or mixed-crowd parties. Deep ruby pomegranate tea, zesty lime and club soda form the basis of this jewel-toned mocktail. It’s bold, flavorful and looks stunning in a glass. Serve with Mediterranean-style nibbles like hummus, stuffed grape leaves or olives.

Maple Whiskey Sour

A smooth cocktail that tastes like fall in a glass. This autumn-inspired take on the whiskey sour swaps out simple syrup for rich maple syrup, adding earthy sweetness that mixes nicely with whiskey. Fresh lemon juice keeps things bright and balanced, while a touch of aquafaba (or egg white) adds a velvety foam on top – optional, but worth it! Try serving with roasted root vegetables, pork tenderloin or a bubbling mac and cheese for a hearty presentation.

Cranberry Sangria Punch

With just the right mix of sweet and tart, this vibrant sangria will be a crowd-pleaser at your next potluck, tailgate or casual dinner party. Apples, cranberries and orange slices mingle with Campari and bottled sangria for a fruity, flavorful drink that’s easy to prep ahead. Add a splash of champagne for a little fizz and garnish with fresh fruit. Pair it with charcuterie, grilled sausages or roasted chicken for effortless entertaining.

Pumpkin Spice White Russian

An inviting cocktail-hour indulgence that’s perfect for dessert, movie nights or anytime you’re craving something sweet. This riff on the classic White Russian swaps heavy cream for pumpkin spice creamer, blending with vodka and coffee liqueur for a comforting sip. Optional but highly recommended: a graham cracker and pumpkin spice rim for extra flair. Serve with spiced cookies, pumpkin pie or enjoy it as a decadent nightcap.

Harvest Moon Mocktail

A sophisticated sip that channels the spirit of autumn – ideal for book clubs, family-style dinners or any small gathering. This layered mocktail blends astringent black tea, spicy ginger beer, and a touch of rich fig syrup for a drink that’s earthy, lightly sweet and gently sparkling. It’s a non-creamy option with real depth. Serve alongside roasted squash salad, spiced flatbreads or caramel apple muffins.

The fall brings a bounty of flavors worth celebrating. From bold cocktails to balanced mocktails, these drinks are your invitation to slow down, gather your favorite people and savor the richness of the season – with style and ease. Cheers!
