Cinnamon and spices are a staple flavour at Christmas time. Whiskey and spice go hand in hand , so it only makes sense to have a nice festive cocktail that fits this pairing. Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey is a great spirit that goes so well with many other ingredients and it stands out cleanly in this recipe along with other flavours that match it so well.
Along with a good bit of spice, the Christmas By The Fire uses Apple Cider and Cranberry Juice which add their own dry tart sweetness as well. To top it off a sprinkle of ground Cinnamon on top of this drink will up the tasting experience to its best. It is a cocktail you will want to sip slowly and savour but we'd forgive you if you find it going as quickly as you have made it.
If you are looking for a cocktail to have inside and put a bit of warm in your chest , then this will be the one to try this Christmas.
Here is how it is made.
