It’s fall, which for beer drinkers means lots-o-Oktoberfests & pumpkin beers; for wine drinkers, it’s Beaujolais; and for spirit/cocktail types?

Apple Pie.

Unfamiliar with this deep, downhome ‘Sconnie drink? Here’s our favorite recipe. Be warned; she packs a mean punch:

750oz Everclear
1 gallon apple juice
1 gallon apple cider
1 cup sugar
7 cinnamon sticks

Heat apple juice, apple cider, sugar, and cinnamon sticks together till boiling. Allow to cool before stirring in Everclear.

For a little bit more punch, add some Hot 100! schnapps in addition to the Everclear. Depending on how much you add, this is a great drink to shoot or sip. And for more cocktail fun, check out Chicone’s recipes page.
