10 Elegant Autumn Cocktails

Autumn is my very favorite season! I love the smell, I love the color, I love finally being able to walk outside without slathering myself in SPF 100 (I’m virtually a vampire, it’s quite necessary in the summer months), and I love Autumn recipes!

I love everything about the Fall, and most of all, I love that people are starting to move inside and get cozy. My summer BBQs give way to candle-lit dinner parties and cocktail parties, and it gives me a chance to come up with new treats that are more elegant than the year before!

Give these gorgeous cocktails a shake at your next cozy cocktail party!
