What’s a holiday party without a signature cocktail?! I absolutely love making festive drinks and Thanksgiving is actually one of my favorite holidays to create cocktail recipes for. I think it’s the apple or the cinnamon. Both pair so well with my all-time favorite spirit of bourbon.
When I have guests over, I like to take the pressure of making a drink choice off of them. When you have a cocktail or two of the evening, it makes things much easier. Of course, my full bar is always open to everyone, but most people tend to opt for the festive choice.

Apple Bourbon Fizz
Ingredients
- 1.5 oz bourbon
- 3 oz sparkling apple
- 1 dash cinnamon
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 slice apple
- 1 large ice cube
Instructions
- Prepare your glass of choice with one large ice cube
- Add bourbon, then sparkling apple juice
- Sprinkle cinnamon on top
- Garnish with cinnamon stick and apple slice

Mmm I’ll have to make my own version and swap all the apple for pear since I’m super allergic to apples. This sounds really delicious!

Aw man! Yes, you should definitely try that! Or maybe with sparkling white grape juice? Not necessarily a fall fruit but I’m sure that would be delicious too!

I’m not much of a bourbon drinker but this might change that- this looks delicious! Also, please share deets on those glasses, they are beautiful!

It’s so good! You should totally try it. I think even non-bourbon drinkers will love the flavor combination! And thank you so much! I’m OBSESSED with them. Here’s the link: https://bit.ly/3HohSi2
