When fall rolls in, this Caramel Apple Spiced Rum Cocktail is the kind of drink that makes you want to throw on a sweater and lean into the season.

Whether you’re hosting a cozy gathering or just treating yourself, this cocktail is easy to make and even easier to sip.
Helpful Tips
- For the best flavor, use fresh apple cider, not juice, since it has a richer, spicier taste.
- Warm the caramel sauce slightly before drizzling so it blends into the drink more smoothly.
- If you like a little fizz, top it off with a splash of ginger beer or sparkling apple cider.
