As the weather begins to cool and the leaves begin to fall, toast the season with the Yamazaki Autumn Delight or a Tully 10 Cider - two specialty whisky cocktails that are sure to add a little spice to the autumn season. For a warm nightcap on a cool autumn night, a Tullamore Toddy with Cardamon, Anise, & Allspice is certain to hit the spot.
With hints of apple and cinnamon, Yamazaki and Tullamore Dew are taking whisky from neat to sweet. While typically enjoyed alone, these cocktails have combined the best of ingredients to not only bring out the distinctive flavor of each whisky, but the flavors of fall as well.

Okay, your recipes are alright, but have you looked at your ingredient quantities? No way you're going to use 5 ounces of simple syrup in something. Most martini glasses will on ly hold 5-6 oz., TOTAL, and most highballs or Collins will only hold about the same with ice. A pint glass with ice will only hold 10 oz. total too. Good ideas, bad execution.
