11 whiskey cocktails to warm your soul

Whiskey's signature oak flavor pairs beautifully with everything from apple cider, to tart produce like blackberries & lemonade, to hot cocoa. Here are 11 whiskey cocktails to drink all year round.

This soothing sipper is like the cashmere sweater of cocktails, thanks to cranberry juice, fresh tangerines, ginger and warm spices.

1

LIZ ANDREW/ERIN MCDOWELL

SLOW-COOKER CRANBERRY HOT TODDY

This creamy, cinnamon-y, nutmeg-kissed bev pairs well with dark rum, brandy and Cognac alike, but bourbon is our go-to choice.

LIZ ANDREW/ERIN MCDOWELL

CLASSIC EGGNOG

For the record, bourbon is a type of whiskey, which also makes it a delicious pairing for citrus.

3

LAURA WING AND JIM KAMOOSI

BLOOD ORANGE BOURBON SOUR

Using chai tea instead of black makes this drink super autumnal. Serve it with whiskey, spiced rum or even Baileys.

LIZ ANDREW/ERIN MCDOWELL

CHAI HOT TODDY

Instead of simply muddling an orange slice & cherry, this drink gets fresh clementine juice, orange bitters & spiced rosemary-honey syrup.

5

HALF BAKED HARVEST

SPICED HONEY BOURBON OLD FASHIONED

Rye is the star of this old-school cocktail, dashed with two types of bitters and sweet vermouth.

6

DUDE THAT COOKZ

CLASSIC MANHATTAN COCKTAIL

The drink is topped with ginger beer, so it's equal parts sweet, sour & spicy. Use fresh blueberries when they're in season & frozen when they aren't.

7

vintage kitty

blueberry whiskey buck

There's no shortage of fall spices in this fruity libation. We're talking whole cloves, cardamom pods, star anise and cinnamon sticks.

8

SPOON FORK BACON

honeycrisp and bourbon spiced cider

Pomegranate juice and fresh-squeezed OJ offer acidity while prosecco turns the cocktail bubbly.

9

HALF BAKED HARVEST

HOLIDAY CHEERMEISTER BOURBON PUNCH

The base is a rich concoction of butter, brown sugar, maple syrup & spices. Once it's cooked, all it needs is hot water & a few shots of bourbon.

10

how sweet eats

HOT BUTTERED BOURBON

You're only 3 ingredients away from this staple. Use store-bought lemonade to save time or make your own (& infuse it with herbs like lavender & rosemary).
