The Apple Butter Cold Fashioned is like autumn in a glass—a perfect blend of spiced warmth and cozy sweetness. The bourbon delivers a smooth and bold foundation, enhanced by the rich creaminess of apple butter and the tart brightness of spiced apple cider. The orange bitters bring a pop of citrusy depth, tying together the robust coffee flavors with the fall-inspired apple and cinnamon. Every sip is a comforting mix of bold, spiced, and subtly sweet flavors that linger warmly on the palate. It's a sweeter and more seasonal adaptation of the original Switters Cold Fashioned. 

This cocktail is ideal for fall and winter evenings—whether you’re winding down after a Thanksgiving feast or toasting with friends at a holiday gathering. Its warm, spiced notes make it a showstopper for seasonal cocktail menus, Friendsgiving celebrations, or even a cozy night in by the fire. With its decadent apple and cinnamon flavors, this drink feels festive and luxurious without being overly fussy.

Pro Tip: For a seasonal flair, use Elm Hill Spice or Cozy Snap, which complement the spiced apple and cinnamon flavors beautifully. For a year-round version, try Dark RoastMiddle Ground, 8th & Roast, or Decaf—each adds its own twist to this cozy cocktail creation.
