How To Autumn-ise Your Cocktails

Gather your friends, shake up some drinks, and add a little warmth into your favourite cocktails.

As the air turns crisp and the leaves put on their fiery display, it's time to usher in the rich, cozy flavours of autumn. 

Let's Talk Ingredients

Apples, feijoa, passionfruit, pear, dragonfruit are all in-season. Harness the essence of the season by switching these seasonal fruits into your cocktails. 

Spice Up Your Life

Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger are your best friends. They're like little drops of coziness in every sip. Add a pinch of cinnamon to your old fashioned, infuse your simple syrup with cloves, or sprinkle some nutmeg on top for that extra oomph. 

Dive into the Dark Side

Embracing the depth and complexity of darker spirits like whisky, bourbon, and spiced rum. Swap out your usual vodka for whisky in a Moscow Mule or let rum work its magic in a classic Negroni. 

Stay Herbal

Fresh herbs might scream summer, but guess what? They're also fantastic year-round. Think rosemary, thyme, and sage, which are like little bursts of freshness amidst all the autumnal richness. Infuse your simple syrup with rosemary, muddle some sage into your drink, or garnish with a sprig of thyme for that extra touch of sophistication. 

Bittersweet Symphony

Bitters are the secret weapon of every cocktail aficionado, and autumn is no exception. Aromatic, spicy, or citrusy, bitters add that perfect finishing touch to your drinks. A dash of orange bitters can brighten up a whisky sour, while aromatic bitters can take your manhattan to new heights.
