This martini combines all the goodness of pumpkin pie in one glass, complete with a graham cracker rim reminiscent of pie crust. It’s creamy, decadent, and oh-so-cozy. To create this delectable drink, combine vodka, maple syrup, and heavy cream (or coconut milk for the dairy-free folks) with pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spices, and vanilla extract.
2. Bourbon Pecan Pie Cocktail

If pumpkin pie isn’t quite up your alley, consider whipping up this pecan pie-inspired drink instead. You only need three ingredients: bourbon, pecan praline liqueur, and vodka. Just keep in mind all three ingredients are boozy, so be prepared to sip this one slowly.
3. Apple Cider Sangria

If the pumpkin spice latte takes the top spot for the most beloved fall beverage, apple cider comes in at a close second. This batched sangria takes the apple cider up a notch by pairing it with ginger liqueur, ginger ale, and dry white wine, which cuts down on some of the sweetness.
4. Hot Toddy

5. Harvest Apple Ginger Smash
