The Apple Brandy Allspice Fizz is a beautiful cocktail to serve along side your Thanksgiving feast.

It’s tart and full of spices to pair with the flavorful food, yet light and refreshing to sip on so it won’t fill you up.

More room for those second and third helpings of turkey and stuffing! Win-win! Plus, an apple a day keeps the doctor away as they say!

I feel like this is left open for some interpretation and will be drinking way more apple brandy this fall and winter. What about you?!

Apples are one of my (Ashley Conway) favorite things to snack on in the fall.

You can’t beat a fresh Lady Apple, but I also really, really enjoy drinking tasty apple cocktails like this Apple Brandy Allspice Fizz Thanksgiving Cocktail recipe!

Sure there are a plethora of apple cider cocktails you can be sipping on. But I love mixing with Apple Brandy.

It has beautiful apple flavor and spice-filled notes, but gives you more flexibility than apple juice or cider. You can think of this drink as an Apple Brandy Old Fashioned!

What Is Apple Brandy?

What is Apple Brandy exactly? It is a distilled spirit made entirely from apples (so no corn, wheat, etc).

It’s basically apple juice, but you know, boozy! 

There are a lot of spicy notes in the Apple Brandy, which works well in this particular recipe since I used it to compliment through the emulsified, creamy egg white and fizziness of the soda.

Our Fall Poisoned Apple Cocktail is another recipe that features this particular brandy.

Thanksgiving Cocktail Recipe

They most likely enjoyed some (or a lot) of Apple Brandy at the First Thanksgiving!

Apples were so abundant back then. Apples were also easier to distill compared to the many other spirits that they were trying to produce at the time.

The Apple Brandy that I used for this recipe, Laird’s 7 1/2 Year old hails from my home state. Heeey, New Jersey!

And this particular brand also created the first commercial distillery in America. Thus, producing the first Apple Brandy here. I’ll cheers to that!

If you are not really into the history of booze like I am and prefer to just enjoy a delicious drink, then let’s get to the good part!

  1. Happened on this recipe in some sort of fall cocktail roundup. My shaker isn’t super large, but I premixed a double recipe and stirred before pouring 1/2 into the shaker with the egg white. Was able to use the remaining foam from the first for the second as well. A very nice cocktail!5 stars

  2. Did you mean to say 3 heaping tbsp of allspice? I’m assuming so because you can’t really measure star anise in tbsp unless it comes in powder form?
