Cinnamon Toast co*cktail | Julie Blanner (2024)

A cinnamon toast co*cktail is the ultimate fall sip. Featuring Goldschlager (or your favorite cinnamon liqueur), it will warm you up on even the chilliest of evenings.

It’s the perfect blend of Cinnamon Schnapps and apple cider, garnished with an apple slice and cinnamon sticks!

This is one of my favorite fall co*cktails – it’s perfect for a chilly evening in, a bonfire, or to sip on while you’re waiting for trick or treaters. If you are planning a get together this fall, this cinnamon liqueur co*cktail is a must have!

It is simple to prepare, allowing you to enjoy the crisp fall air with your friends, just sit back and let them think you worked harder than you did.

I first tried this co*cktail at one of our favorite places on Table Rock Lake – Big Cedar Lodge! Looking out over the lake and watching the leaves change color is so magical, and this cinnamon schnapps co*cktail hit the spot perfectly.

Cinnamon schnapps is the perfect way to spike a fall or winter drink to warm you up, it may not have the current fame of cinnamon whiskey, but it is a tried and true favorite that can dress up your drinks with ease.
