Autumn is my favorite time of year and these fall cocktail recipes featuring Pumpkin Spice Moonshine from Sugarlands Distilling Company will help me celebrate the season all year round. These two cocktail recipes are ones I developed with the assistance of my Buffalo BFF, Annette. She’s an at-home mixologist and knows know her beverages and flavors!
These fall cocktails are sweet and fiery with Sugarlands Distilling Company’s Pumpkin Spice Moonshine as the inspiration. The moonshine is lovely by itself and adds creativity in fall cocktails to a casual get together, Halloween party or holiday gathering.
