Cocktails

Cozy up with an autumn tipple created by Jason Griffin, the man behind the bar at Maison Boulud in Montreal's Ritz-Carlton Hotel

Mulled wine gets an autumnal update with the addition of pears, clementines and cranberries. It's the perfect batch cocktail for a chilly day.

This gorgeous fall cocktail is a seasonal version of a sidecar—a century-old drink made with brandy, orange liqueur and lemon juice—with a few tweaks. In our recipe, we use a pear liqueur in place of orange and omit the added sugar for a more tart flavour.

Shrubs—an old way of preserving fruits and vegetables with vinegar—add punch to cocktails; this one is perfect for fall, with apple brandy and beet pickles as garnish.

Upgrade that bottle gathering dust in the cupboard with a bit of fall flavour in this simple apple gin recipe (add lavender if you're feeling fancy!)
