Classy Autumn Drinks to Keep you Cozy
When the chilly air is creeping in sometimes it’s nice to stay inside cozy up and watch a movie with your loved one or even the girls. Or it’s nice in the Fall to gather your friends and host a dinner party or a game night at your home. Here are some ideas for delicious Autumn drinks that you can easily make at home without spending a ton of money.
Cran-Apple Peach Sangria
These are some of my favorite fruits in the Fall, so why not make some delicious sangria? You will need…
- Bottle of white white any kind you like, doesn’t have to be expensive
- 2-3 cups of cranberry juice depending on how much you like cranberry juice
- 4 peaches cut into cubes
- 4 apples cut into cubes
- If you like brandy you can add two shots just to give it a little kick
Mix everything together into a large pitcher and refrigerate for a least a few hours.
Sparkling Cranberry Cocktail
This one is great for dinners, it’s quick and easy taking no longer then about 10 minutes.
- Bottle (well, depending on how many guests) sparkling rose wine or champagne
- Sugar cubes
- Cranberry juice
- Cranberries (optional)
- Wooden skewers (optional)
Grab your champagne flutes and fill the glass with your wine or champagne, drop one sugar cube into each glass. Add just a splash of cranberry juice to each flute. If you want to add cranberries put about 5 or 6 cranberries on each wooden skewer and place skewers into flutes, and now you have an eye catching delicious drink that your guests will love.
The Toasted Almond
This drink is great for after dinner or to sip while watching a movie. You will need…
- 2 shots of Kahlua
- 2 shots or Amaretto
Add to shaker glass filled with ice. Strain into small cocktail glass and if you would like add some sliced almonds.
Elegant Coffee
Delicious for after dinner anytime.
- Brewed coffee
- Shot of chocolate liqueur
- Shot of hazelnut liqueur
Add to a wine glass ingredients and milk together, add a splash of milk if you like. Then sprinkle cocoa powder on the top.
Enjoy, Happy Fall!







Hi Kelly
I like cold weather drinks too, and my fave is a drink often served in France at brocantes: antique/flea markets. When the chill comes in the air, having a nice vin chaud (hot wine) for 1.50euro makes it feel and taste like Fall.
Here’s the simple recipe a dealer at one of my favorite brocantes, Bastille, gave me. I now make it at home and enjoy it many times each autumn!
Vin Chaud
1 bottle of inexpensive, but drinkable, red wine
1 small plastic cup filled with granulated light brown sugar
1 small plastic cup filled with orange juice
1 cinnamon stick
Heat until bubbly, stirring well, serve and enjoy!
Moi tip: Serve vin chaud at a party, and keep the wine warm in a crock pot, and let guests serve themselves.
Bon Appetite!
