Fireball Moscow Mule
You might be inclined to think that the Moscow Mule has already reached the peak of perfection, but the Fireball variation is here to change hearts and minds. In this variation on the classic 1940s cocktail, the spice of the ginger beer ramps up the cinnamon whiskey’s tongue-tingling heat while the lime cuts through with a refreshing citrus twist.
Apple Pie Fireball
The Apple Pie Fireball shot may not be what Grandma has in mind for the honey flavors of ripe apples, cinnamon, and vanilla. Still, there’s no denying that this irresistible combination of cinnamon whiskey and apple cider captures the essence of warm, homemade pie. The piece de resistance, however, is the clever addition of apple pie spice and vanilla vodka for that home-baked taste.

The vibrant Fireball and Cran cocktail is where Fireball whiskey’s exhilarating cinnamon meets the refreshing tartness of cranberry juice. The quintessential fall fruit’s tartness tempers the heat without undermining it.
