As blue skies and sunny days give way to a crisp chill in the air and changing foliage, summer drinks like spritzes and frosé are retired in favor of warming fall beverages, featuring whiskey, spices, pumpkin, cider, and other autumnal ingredients. We’ve gathered a selection of fall-appropriate cocktails to try, from The Dane‘s cozy “Autumn Sweater” to Navy Strength‘s spooky horror-flick-inspired October lineup. Whether you’re looking for a drink to enjoy in person at a socially distanced bar or a cocktail kit to assemble at home, you’ll find options here.
