You may even celebrate the changing of the season with some overtly fall-ish apple cider cinnamon whiskey pumpkin juice mimosa thing. But short of an apple orchard and pumpkin patch, there are plenty of classic cocktails that taste like autumn—as much as a cocktail can taste like a season. Whether you’re hosting a small get-together for the holidays or you just need a tasty pick-me-up after a long day, these sweet “cidertinis,” cozy mulled wines, and piping hot toddies will surely bring out the best of the season’s flavors.
