"Want an easy cocktail that's perfect for chilly weather? Try Fireball and apple cider! The first time I mixed these two together, I expected something decent but predictable. But what I got surprised me: the spicy cinnamon blends seamlessly with tangy sweet cider. Fireball whisky might have a college dorm reputation, but mix it up just right and it tastes like a sophisticated craft cocktail perfect for fall and winter. It's a drink that makes people say, "Wait, what's in this?""
"Fireball brings an intense candy-like cinnamon flavor that's tamed by the natural sweet tart cider. I like to add a splash of lemon juice, which brightens everything and adds another dimension. I've tested this recipe several times and if you're serving it cold, the 2:3 ratio of Fireball to cider hits the sweet spot where you taste both components equally. You can also make it warm, where you'll use more cider. Go to my Spiked Cider recipe."
Fireball and apple cider create an easy, cozy cocktail ideal for fall and winter. Spicy, candy-like cinnamon from Fireball blends with tangy, sweet cider to produce a balanced, approachable drink that often surprises with depth. A splash of lemon brightens the flavors, and a 2:3 Fireball-to-cider ratio works well for a cold serve; for a warm version use more cider. Fireball Cinnamon Whisky combines Canadian whisky and cinnamon flavoring, originated in the 1980s, and is produced by the Sazerac Company. At 33% ABV it is a flavored whiskey rather than a standard 40% whiskey, and it also works in cocktails like a Fireball Old Fashioned or Cinnamon Toast Crunch shot.
