This Apple Butter Bourbon Cocktail is made with apple cider and apple butter for a delicious, fall inspired libation.
I love fall… crisp apples, fresh squeezed apple cider, cooler weather. Makes me want to get all cozy and bake. I had some leftover apple butter from making an apple butter spice cake so I decided to use it up in a cocktail. This recipe is very similar to a drink I made a long time ago, the Bourbon Apple Cider but this time I added apple butter to sweeten it up and add more apple goodness! I had a couple friends over for girls night and made these Apple Butter Bourbon Cocktails. We all enjoyed them! None of us are big bourbon/whiskey fans but sweetened up in a mixed cocktail form is so delicious!
