This sweet vodka cocktail features a myriad of autumnal fruits, from apples to figs to citrus. The dash of maple syrup adds a distinct seasonal flavor to the spicy ginger beer and tangy lemon. If figs aren’t in season, you could always use an apple slice for garnish.

Since pumpkin spice is the most anticipated fall latte at your local Starbucks, it follows that bartenders would figure out a way to make pumpkin spice cocktails. There’s no better drink for a pumpkin spice infusion than a milky White Russian. You use the same rich Kalua liqueur, cream, and vodka mixture with the addition of pumpkin spice syrup. This is the most luxurious and rich cocktail. You just need one!

A traditional Tom Collins is essentially a bubbly lemonade spiked with gin. This Pear and Elderflower Collins is much more complex, adding freshly pureed pear and elderflower liqueurs. Elderflower adds bitterness and a floral flavor that complements the subtle and elegant sweetness inherent in pears. Using vodka instead of gin evades an overly herby taste.

The beauty of a Martini is that it’s a two-ingredient cocktail. The beauty of vodka martinis is that they are as smooth and tasteless as vodka itself, taking on any flavor you’d like to add. This recipe makes a pro out of anyone by instructing you on how to infuse vodka with pear and various fresh spices like anise, cinnamon, and clove. Spoiler alert, it’s not that difficult.

Fall Back Buck

If you’re looking for great cocktails, most spirit brands have a long list of recipes on their websites. This citrus bursting fall cocktail comes compliments of Ketel One Vodka, which recommends pairing their Citroen flavored vodka with the same profile of citrus fruits used to infuse it. The addition of pineapple, simple syrup, and bitters rounds out the flavor profile, so it’s not too sweet or too tart.

This simple recipe has three main ingredients: vodka, apple cider, and ginger ale. It’s easy to make it by the pitcher as easily as by the glass. It’s a cold beverage, and the ice helps water down the sweetness. To bring out the spice of the ginger, a dash of cinnamon is the ideal fall garnish.

This intricate recipe has you making every ingredient from scratch. I thought that “shrub” referred to a bush, but in this case, it refers to thyme and fig-infused simple syrup. You first must make the shrub, and then you use it as an ingredient in this herbaceous and fresh vodka cocktail with figs as the star of the show.

This balanced cocktail uses a scratch-made cranberry, and orange reduction stirred into a fizzy base of vodka and soda. The reduction becomes a beautiful burgundy syrup that you can use in the future for Italian sodas or as a tangy sweet glaze over a freshly baked pound cake.

Pomegranate and Orange Vodka Cocktail

Pomegranate juice is the height of tangy, healthy, and fruity flavor. The price of a small flask is enough to scare budgets, but thankfully a little goes a long way. This cocktail supplements pomegranate with fresh orange juice, but the real flavor enhancer is the muddled mint with simple syrup.
