Fallen Leaves Ingredients


Fallen Leaves Instructions

The Fallen Leaves cocktail is a delightful autumn-inspired drink that combines rich flavors to create a truly unique and delicious experience. This cocktail is perfect for those crisp fall evenings, when the leaves are changing colors and there is a slight chill in the air.

To make the Fallen Leaves cocktail, start by gathering all the necessary ingredients. Once you have everything ready, begin by muddling a few fresh sage leaves in a cocktail shaker. This will release the aromatic oils and add a hint of herbaceousness to the drink. Add in a generous splash of apple cider and a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness.

Next, add in a good measure of bourbon - the classic fall spirit. The rich and oaky flavors of the bourbon perfectly complement the other ingredients in this cocktail. Give everything a good shake to combine all the flavors together.

Now, it's time to strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice. This will ensure a refreshing and chilled cocktail. Garnish with an apple slice or a sage leaf for an extra touch of elegance.

The Fallen Leaves cocktail is best enjoyed slowly, sipping it as you take in the beautiful fall scenery. The combination of the earthy sage, tangy apple cider, and robust bourbon creates a harmonious blend of flavors that truly captures the essence of the season.


Best served in a Cocktail Glass.
