Nothing punctuates an epic holiday gathering like a rich and flavorful nightcap. Kris Vickrey is the lead bartender at Constantino\u2019s \u2014 an elegant, members-only restaurant at Desert Mountain<\/a> in Scottsdale, Ariz. \u2014 and he\u2019s conjured up a concoction that\u2019s sure to impress every guest at the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Autumn\u2019s Apple features a chocolate rim dipped in graham cracker crumbs and a heady mix of spiced rum, Grand Marnier, cinnamon-vanilla agave and heavy cream to give the cocktail its seasonally appropriate snowy-white hue. Adding a splash of sparkling apple cider before serving gives the drink a bubbly, fluffy lift and its namesake apple taste.<\/p>\n\n\n

Vickrey added the cocktail to the seasonal beverage menu at Constantino\u2019s for the first time last year, and the drink was such a hit that he says it will make a return engagement this fall and winter season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe inspiration was apple pie<\/a> and ice cream,\u201d he says. \u201cThis is a fun one to bring out when all the members are bringing back their families. It\u2019s the perfect way to close the night off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Autumn\u2019s Apple pairs well with the hearty fare served around the holidays. Prime rib<\/a> is a great choice, Vickrey says, as are other family-gathering staples like veal, steak, turkey<\/a> and even spaghetti and meatballs. Accompaniments like mashed potatoes and asparagus also pair well.<\/p>\n\n\n

Make a perfect Old Fashioned cocktail with this simple recipe<\/a><\/blockquote>\n By:<\/span>\n \n \n Jessica Marksbury <\/a>\n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/figcaption>\n <\/figure>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

While the ingredients and prep for the Autumn\u2019s Apple may look intimidating, Vickrey says you don\u2019t have to be too prescriptive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe beautiful thing about making cocktails<\/a> is how flexible you get to be with them,\u201d he says. \u201cIf you don\u2019t have all the ingredients at home to make it, you can be creative. If you want to do a sugar rim instead of a graham cracker rim, do that. If you want to use a caramel dipping sauce on the rim rather than chocolate, that tastes fantastic too.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The heavy cream can also be subbed for a nondairy product like oat milk, Vickrey says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the fun part about my job,\u201d he adds. \u201cYou get to be flexible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
