I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned this about a dozen or more times, but I LOVE champagne cocktails!

I love champs cocktails beyond the traditional mimosa. My go-to recipe is champagne, cranberry juice and a splash of vodka over ice. I sometimes change up the type of juice that I use and use pomegranate.

Why do I love champagne so much? It’s tastes light and you can make a pretty low-cal cocktail with champs. My secret – I buy 4-packs of mini champagne bottles. When you open a large bottle of champagne, you have to drink the whole thing or it will lose it’s bubbles. I can’t drink a whole bottle, so I buy mini bottles and I can make a single drink!

I wanted to create a fall-ish cocktail using my fave booze. This recipe came together on a whim when I was craving some fall comfort foods.

It’s sweet, delicious, easy and tastes like fall. I really loved my cocktail once my cinnamon stick had been sitting in it for awhile, so you can always soak your cinnamon stick in your apple juice for a bit before you add the champagne.

I didn’t serve mine over ice because my apple juice and champagne were cold, but you could add ice if you want.

What’s your fave fall cocktail?
