Mixology Thursdays are always a good way to start your weekend early, and today is no exception! Callahan’s was in the Mix 107.9 Studio Bar with Michelle and our favorite bartender, Blaze mixed us some delicious fall drinks.
If you like bourbon and pumpkin beer, you’ll be a fan of the Apple Pumpkin Cocktail.
Combine the following ingredients in a rocks glass filled with ice:
- Fresh juice from 3 lemon wedges
- Hard Cider (Your choice, we used Strongbow)
- Pumpkin Beer (Your choice, we used seasonal New Belgium Pumpkick)
- Top with Bourbon (We used Bulleit)
Once ingredients are in the glass stir (don’t shake!) the drink and serve.
For a lighter drink you’ll want to try the Fall Champagne Cocktail featuring many fresh citrus juices and a splash of champagne.
Combine the following ingredients in a shaker filled with ice:
- 2 dashes of bitters
- St. Germain Elderflower liqueur
- Tito’s Vodka
- A wedge of fresh Lemon, Lime, and Grapefruit juices
Shake the ingredients and strain the drink into a cocktail glass. Top the drink with champagne or prosecco and garnish with a lemon twist.
Finally, if you want the true taste of fall in an adult beverage, you must check out the Ginger Apple Cider Cocktail – a blend of apple cider, ginger liqueur, and bourbon.
Combine the following ingredients in a shaker filled with ice:
- Apple Cider
- Ginger Liqueur
- Bourbon (We used Bulleit)
- 1 dash of bitters
- Fresh lemon juice
Shake the ingredients with ice and strain the drink into a glass. Add a lemon twist for garnish and enjoy.
