You could put anything apple or pumpkin in front of me over the course of the next 2 months and I will say, thank you. I kinda love that they are seasonal and quite frankly if they were around all year long I am not sure I would love them as much.
Pumpkin bread, donuts, butter will all work just fine for me. And apple cake, donuts, cider + cocktails also just fine for me.
We started this drink when our middle child was in college and we would visit for a football game and the tailgates were pretty epic. It's a mixed drink of cold apple cider and Fireball whiskey on the rocks. Man is it good! Did you ever eat a fireball candy when you were a kid? Well it tastes a lot like it minus the part where it gets so hot you had to spit it out for a second.
And then last year we created a spritz with these ingredients topping it off with Prosecco and we loved that too. In fact, we served it on Thanksgiving last year. Something about the Prosecco makes it feel a bit more elevated. Enjoy!
