Thanksgiving cocktails
Fall fruit, baking spice, bubbles, and batchable pours run through this set, from Pear Tree Cocktail and Plum Cocktail to Pumpkin Sazerac and Poinsettia.
Start here
Plan Thanksgiving cocktails around the meal's three windows. For the welcome round, light pours like Pear Tree Cocktail, Long Flight of Stairs, Stairs Cocktail, and Poinsettia keep guests upright through the kitchen wait. Bubbles in Poinsettia move the toast forward without filling anyone up before turkey hits the table. At dinner, fall-fruit and spice builds such as Apple & Blackberry Pie, Plum Cocktail, Cyder Press, Autumn Cocktail, and Fall Enzoni sit beside roast plates without clashing. For dessert and the slow stretch after, lean on Pumpkin Daiquiri, Pumpkin Sazerac, Gingerbread Cocktail, Christmas Pudding & Custard Cocktail, and Fruit & Nut Cocktail. Batch the welcome drink in a pitcher so the host can stay at the stove. Each recipe page lists measures, glass, and garnish so you can shop one list.
