Favorite Fall Alcoholic drink
I am trying to come up with ideas for a party that I am going to. I am in charge of bringing the signature drink and wanted something that fits the season. Any ideas?

Re: Favorite Fall Alcoholic drink
Last year in Michigan I had hot spiced cider (but made with the ale cider, not regular apple cider). It was yummy!!
I do love a hot rum infused apple cider too. Anything with apples and/or cinnamon says fall to me.
So Tasty, So Yummy
Gosh, I don't think I could pick just one!
I love Mexican Hot Chocolate (with or w/o alcohol), spiced cider, hot buttered rum (yum!), and anything with either peppermint schnapps or Baileys!!
A couple of recipes I have on hand:
PUMPKIN PIE MARTINIS
2 ounces (1/4 c.) vanilla vodka
2 ounces (1/4 c.) creme de cacao
1/4 cup heavy cream
3 count pineapple juice
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
Whipped cream, for garnish
1. Fill cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes. Add vanilla vodka, creme de cacao, heavy cream, and pumpkin pie spice. Shake well.
2. Dip the rims of 2 martini glasses into a bowl of whipped cream. Strain the cocktail into the glasses.
CINNAMON SNAPS
3 ounces (1/4 c. + 2 Tbsp.) vodka
2 ounces (1/4 c.) apple schnapps
1/4 cup apple cider
1/4 cup sugar
? tsp. ground cinnamon
1. Fill cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes. Add the vodka, schnapps and cider. Shake well.
2. In a shallow bowl, mix the suga and cinnamon. Moisten the rims of 2 champagne flutes and coat with the cinnamon/sugar. Strain the cocktail into the flutes.
Hello YUM.
