Can I use Apple Juice instead of Spiced Apple Cider?

In general, Fireball and Apple juice is fresh and delicious, but spiced apple cider is the way to go for this cocktail.

The added spices in the cider are what really makes this cocktail standout and taste more like apple pie.

Can I use Regular Vodka instead of Vanilla Vodka?

No, to get the right flavors, you’ll need vanilla vodka for this drink. Without it, you’ll be missing a key flavor in creating this tasty apple pie cocktail.

What Does Fireball Whisky Taste Like?

Fireball Whisky tastes like cinnamon and apple pie with a bit of a burn common to whiskey drinks. It’s strong cinnamon flavor is toned down when mixed with other recipe ingredients, leaving just the perfect spice.

Fireball does add a little heat to your cocktails and if you drink it straight it almost tastes like red hot cinnamon candy.

 

 

Ingredients

All you need are a few simple ingredients to make an apple pie cocktail.

Vanilla Vodka: Flavored vodka infused with real vanilla, giving it a fresh flavor.

Fireball Whisky: Strong cinnamon flavored whiskey that’s 66 proof (or 33% alcohol by volume).

Spiced Apple Cider: Made with apples, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves, it’s the perfect base for this liquid apple pie.

Simple Syrup: Add to the rim to allow the brown sugar to stick.

Brown Sugar: Added on the rim, it’s the perfect flavor and sweetness this cocktail needs.

Garnish: Cinnamon Sugar, Apple Slice and Cinnamon Sticks

 

Directions

Quick step-by-step recipe instructions. Note this recipe is for one serving in a lowball glass. If you’re using a taller cocktail glass, be sure to see the additional information in the recipe card.

STEP 1: Prepare the brown sugar rim of your cocktail glass. Add simple syrup into a small saucer and a couple tablespoons of brown sugar on a separate small saucer. Coat the rim of your glass with simple syrup and then roll it the brown sugar. Fill your glass with ice cubes.

STEP 2: Add 1 ounce of Vanilla Vodka

STEP 3: Add 1 ounce of Fireball Cinnamon Whisky

STEP 4: Add 3 ounces of Spiced Apple Cider and stir.

STEP 5: Add a sprinkle of Cinnamon Sugar on top.

STEP 6: Garnish with an apple slice and cinnamon stick and serve immediately.

 

Tips and Variations

Here are several ideas for your Fireball Apple Pie Drink:

Tip: You can just as easily pour all the ingredients for the drink into a cocktail shaker with ice cubes. Shake until the outside of the shaker is frosty and strain the mixture into your prepared glass with ice.

Tip: On some glasses, the brown sugar might not stick as well. If this happens, coat the rim of your glass with corn syrup or honey as an alternative.

Variation: I love the sweetness of cinnamon sugar, but you can use a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for a mild flavor topping.

Variation: Don’t want the extra sweetness of a brown sugar rim? Switch it out for a cinnamon or a cinnamon sugar rim (which is less sweet). You can also use turbinado sugar which still has a hint of molasses but not as strong as brown sugar. But, I have to advise, the brown sugar rim is amazing!

Variation: Add a topping of whipped cream for an extra creamy apple pie cocktail.

 

No matter if you shake this cocktail or mix it in your cocktail glass, with one sip of this Fireball Apple Pie Cocktail you’ll be hooked. It tastes delicious and it’s one of those drinks you’ll enjoy all season long.
