The perfect Thanksgiving cocktails

There is nothing better than the flavors of Fall, especially on a crisp, Thanksgiving day morning. Below are our favorite Thanksgiving day alcoholic treats to make for your family and friends. 

Apple Cider Sangria

(via  howsweeteats.com)

1 bottle (standard size) of pinot grigio

2 1/2 cups fresh apple cider

1 cup club soda

1/2 cup ginger brandy

3 honey crisp apples, chopped

3 pears, chopped

Vanilla Vodka Chai Tea

(via mylifeasamrs.com)

6 oz. strong Chai Tea (I used 1 tea bag for 6 oz. water)

2 oz. vanilla vodka

¾ oz. amaretto liqueur

½ oz. simple sugar

½ oz. half n half

Bring 3 cups of water to a boil and steep 4 tea bags for 2 to 4 minutes (following the tea directions on the box). Allow to cool and refrigerate until time of use (3 cups tea will yield 4 drinks). In a cocktail shaker or tall glass, combine ingredients and shake or stir generously (shaking will froth up the half n half and help release the infused flavor in the spirits). Fill glass with ice and pour drink over ice. Garnish with a cinnamon stick or two.

Caramel Apple Pie Martini

(via berries.com)

2 ounces Apple Pie vodka

1 ounce Kissed Caramel vodka

1 ounce Velvet Cinn Horchata

1 ounce half & half

Caramel sauce and crushed graham crackers for garnish

Rim a martini glass with caramel sauce; then dip the glass in crushed graham crackers. Set aside. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine both vodkas, horchata, and half & half. Shake vigorously and pour into prepared martini glass.

Pumpkin Pie Martini

1 fluid ounce heavy whipping cream (or for a little lighter you can use half and half)

1 fluid ounce spiced rum (Captain Morgans is great)

Nutmeg

Cinnamon

Whipped whipping cream
