FALL MARTINIS - Fall Fruits to Grace Your Martini Glass!


THE BOUNTY OF FALL FRUIT COCKTAILS

  Fall is my favorite time of year.  Not only has the heat subsided but the leaves are falling, the air is crisp and the Fall fruits are showing up at local farmers markets, orchards and grocers.  There is nothing that says Fall more than grabbing a fruit basket and hand picking your own fruit from an orchard nearby, it's a great family outing and it's kind of sexy for a date too!


Among the fruits that bring their goodness to Fall Happy Hour are apples, pears, pomegranates, grapes and pumpkins, and everyone of these is great used fresh in a cocktail as a juice or garnish.  Since so many cocktails employ fruits and juice mixers you can bring a healthier element to your martini by using freshly squeezed juices and adding fresh fruit garnishes!

Here are my favorite FALL COCKTAILS, check back often because each time the leaves start to fall I'm back at the bar mixing up some new recipes!

ENJOY YOUR FALL HAPPY HOURS

PLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY
