4 Easy Fall Cocktails That Will Make You Say YUM
With cooler weather upon us, we all enjoy delicious and easy Fall cocktails to help us celebrate this wonderful time of year. The best part about these Fall cocktails is you can enjoy them all winter long too!
Let’s get started with my personal favorite. It’s called Bright Apple!
Just a quick note about FOS Greek Mastiha – It is derived from the rare mastic tree, which grows only on the small Mediterranean island of Chios, Greece. FOS Mastiha, historically delicious and crafted to perfection, has been created to elicit a true taste of Greek culture.
Even better, the natural mastic in FOS also has digestive benefits, so no need to fret if you over-indulge in those holiday treats!

Oh yummy! I have not seen this in liquor stores here yet, but know my trusty vendor could order from me. I have tasted it, but I was on the east coast at the time. If I remember correctly, it was kind of woodsy? I ordered it neat, as that is how I like to try new things before going all crazy and making cocktails.
These all look simply delicious. I have apple cider on my shopping list, but I want the good stuff which will require a special trip.
Love how you provided instructions for trimming the glasses. Try honey and raw sugar . . . It’s killer on the right cocktail. Just be sure you are in good company as it can mess up your lipstick.
Goodness my tablet has a mind of its own!
Should be “vendor could order FOR me . . .
And “rimming” instead of “trimming” although that works too.
Thanks again!!!
You always have some of the most unique exotic ingredients in your recipes and these easy fall cocktails do not disappoint at all. They are almost too pretty to drink. Wonderful drinks Carolann.
Thanks, Sue. They look so yummy and perfect for Fall!

Yummy is so the right word for these. Now I just need to decide which one to sample first, but I think I hear the apple cider pear vodka cocktail calling my name ;-)
Oh my gosh, that pear vodka cocktail is super delish! I also love the pumpkin flavored one too. So much fun for entertaining too!
Thanks,
Carolann
