As a wine enthusiast with years of experience crafting seasonal cocktails, I've been excited about Barefoot's new fall Chardonnay. It features inviting notes of peach, Fuji apples, and caramel sweetness—perfect for mixing into refreshing drinks. Here's my go-to recipe for the Harvest Apple cocktail, a crisp, crowd-pleasing fall favorite.
Ingredients:
90 ml Barefoot Chardonnay
15 ml Orange Curaçao (orange liqueur)
45 ml apple juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Cinnamon sugar (for rim garnish)
A few apple slices on a skewer (garnish)
Start by rubbing a lemon slice around the rim of your glass, then dip it into cinnamon sugar. Set aside. In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine the Chardonnay, Orange Curaçao, apple juice, and lemon juice. Shake vigorously until well-chilled. Strain into the prepared glass and garnish with skewered apple slices for that authentic fall touch.
