- Spiced Apple Snaps Fizz
This recipe calls for herbal aquavit or botanical gin, which gives the drink a unique flavour.

To garnish, add some thinly sliced apples that have been dusted with cinnamon. This will give your drink an elegant presentation.

This cocktail uses toffee syrup and apple brandy to create a classic fall flavour combination. The lemon juice balances out the sweetness of the syrup, and the egg white gives the drink a silky smooth texture. This is a grown-up version of everyone's favourite fall treat.
- Whiskey Sour
Make a whiskey sour cocktail by shaking whiskey, lemon juice, and sugar with ice, then strain it into a glass. Try variations with ginger, nutty amaretto, or a New York sour with a red wine float.
