Cheers lovers
Guys, let's talk about booze. I love my cocktails. But what I don't love is the double whammy sugar and booze hangover
that you get from super boozy sugary drinks. Ugh, it's not good
So that's why I developed a little technique that I call balanced boozing that basically involves going easy on the liquor in my cocktails
avoiding the super sugary drinks, and having a few sips of water between each sip of alcohol
So today I'm going to share with you three of my favorite fall cocktails to help you get through those holidays, even with Crazy Uncle Bill
Let's get started. First up is my Oh My Pumpkin Chai Cocktail
First, I bring some water to a boil in a small saucepan and add in some diced pear, maple syrup, pumpkin puree, ginger, pumpkin pie spice, and lemon juice
Cover and simmer for about five minutes, then turn off the heat, add in the chai tea bag and vanilla, and let it sit until fully cooled
Using a slotted spoon, remove all of the pear, ginger, and tea bits, and then set that aside
Then to make the cocktail I add one ounce of the bourbon and one and a half ounces of the pumpkin syrup to a mixer with some ice Shake until well chilled then strain into a cup Top with a little bit of club soda and garnish with a piece of candied ginger
Next is my apple pie mimosa. I start by lightly wetting the rim of a champagne flute
and dipping it into some ground cinnamon. Then I put two ounces of apple cider
into each champagne flute and top it off with three ounces of sparkling wine
Garnish with a slice of apple and enjoy. Finally, my apple and cranberry kombucha sangria
In a large pitcher, I mix together one bottle of white wine, two cups of ginger kombucha
sliced apple, sliced lemon, and some frozen cranberries. Oh guys, it's 5pm somewhere and I am ready to drink up
Seriously, these are my favorite videos to shoot. We need to write more of these kinds of videos every single week
So just put that in the calendar, okay? I hope you enjoyed my fall cocktail video
