The BEST Apple Cider Cocktails
1. Apple Cider Sidecar
I love the name, look, and taste of this seasonal cocktail. And with its combination of apple cider, cognac, and orange liqueur, it’s perfect for celebrating the bounty of the season. I garnished mine with lemon peel.
2. Apple Cider Sangria
You can’t miss the mark when you make this apple cider-based fall cocktail! It’s a mix of apple pie vodka and apple cider. Seasonal spices and cut-up apples, pears, and grapes enhance the flavor and visual appeal.
3. Cider and Maple Old Fashioned
I took a classic old fashioned and added seasonal flavor with apple cider and pure maple syrup to create this sensational Cider and Maple Old Fashioned. It’s one of my favorite apple cider cocktail recipes.
4. Harvest Apple Mule
This Harvest Apple Mule is an autumnal version of a Moscow mule. As you might have expected, this one is made with apple cider! It’s a classic recipe with a fall twist.
5. Apple Cider Manhattan
This Apple Cider Manhattan is made with bourbon, sweet vermouth, apple cider, and maple syrup. It’s the perfect balance of seasonal flavors.
6. Apple Pie Moonshine
The flavor of this Apple Pie Moonshine is a 10 out of 10. This is definitely a recipe you need to try. Plus, it makes a large batch so you can gift any extras to friends and family.
7. Caramel Apple Martini
This fall cocktail is like biting into a caramel apple! And it only takes three ingredients: apple cider, caramel vodka, and butterscotch schnapps. I also rim the glass with caramel sauce.
8. Caramel Apple Pie Martini
This is another autumn take on the martini that you’re going to love. It’s like drinking a slice of fresh-baked apple pie with vanilla ice cream. The glass is even rimmed with graham cracker crumbs!
9. Apple Pie Sangria
This apple cider cocktail has all the flavors you expect in a traditional apple pie filling. The lovely apple pie spices come from a homemade simple syrup. The syrup is super easy to make, and I’ve included a link to it with this sangria recipe.
10. Caramel Apple Cider Moscow Mule
Step out and have a moscow mule that’s tailored to the fall season! Made with caramel vodka, apple cider, and ginger beer, this Caramel Apple Cider Moscow Mule combines the flavors of the season with a classic mule to create a crisp, refreshing, and autumnal libation you’re going to love.
Hot Apple Cider Cocktail Recipes:
11. Cider Mulled Wine
This Cider Mulled Wine is a delicious way to warm up on a cool autumn day, plus it will make your kitchen smell incredible. It’s made of apple cider, wine, and seasonal mulling spices.
12. Pumpkin Apple Cider
What do you make when you’re craving pumpkin and apple cider? Well, this Pumpkin Apple Cider of course! Pumpkin, apple cider, and seasonal spices come together to create this warming and delicious fall beverage. Add a splash of bourbon, brandy, or apple liqueur and you’ve created a tasty fall libation!
13. Hot Apple Cider
Welcome cooler weather with a warm cup of the flavors of fall with this delicious and classic Hot Apple Cider. For me, bourbon is the crowning touch, but you could use brandy, spiced rum, or tequila. You’ll need mulling spices for this recipe. You can find my recipe for Homemade Mulling Spices HERE.

Hi Michael,
So excited to try these recipes.
Can you please share where you found your gold rimmed coupe glasses? They’re exactly what I’ve been looking for. TIA ☺️
They are from Crate and Barrel. Unfortunately they stopped selling them this last year.
