With summer in the rearview mirror, now is the perfect time to dust off your bar cart and start getting creative with cocktails indoors. If, like us, you're tired of your usual repertoire, we've got some fall cocktail recipes that will help you fall back in love with hosting season — and bartending.
Dillon's Small Batch Distillers, located in Beamsville, Niagara, has long been our go-to when it comes to populating our bar rail, with everything from Rye Whisky and Vodka to Peach Brandy and Orange Liqueur in their roster. Now, just in time for fall, the craft distillery has added yet another spirit to its arsenal: Pear Gin. Made using freshly pressed Bartlett pear juice and their Dry Gin 7 as the base spirit, it's a gin that's bursting with terroir and incredibly versatile when it comes to updating your cocktail game.
We're sharing two delicious fall cocktail recipes from Dillon's so you can wow your guests (or just yourself) at your next gathering. The first is a Fall Cinnamon Spice Mule, which shakes up classic Dillon's Vodka with the distillery's Ginger Bitters and Orange Liqueur for a spicy hug in a mug. Plus, there's a refreshing riff on the classic Tom Collins featuring Dillon's brand-new Pear Gin. The Pear Collins combines Dillon's bitters and syrups, plus a sprig of thyme and rosemary, for a fall sipper that's guaranteed to make it onto your hitlist.
