Fall Into Flavor: Seasonal Sips at Room 38

As the leaves change and the air chills, Room 38 transforms its menu to embrace the essence of fall. Our cocktail creators have been inspired by the flavors of the season, infusing classic drinks with autumnal twists. This year, our lineup features four cocktails that promise to warm your soul and tease your palate with the rich, comforting tastes of fall. Join us as we dive into the heart of the season with these delightful creations.

1. Apple Cider Margarita
Starting with a twist on a classic, our Apple Cider Margarita seamlessly marries the warmth of fall with the spirited kick of a summer favorite. Made with Espolon Reposado Tequila, a splash of Amaretto for depth, and the tang of fresh lime, this cocktail is a complex dance of flavors. We sweeten the deal with agave and top it off with crisp apple cider, crafting a drink that’s both refreshing and comforting. It’s like autumn in a glass—perfect for those sunny yet crisp afternoons.

2. Autumn Aperol Spritz
For those who savor the transition of seasons, our Autumn Aperol Spritz is a love letter to fall. This innovative twist on the classic spritz incorporates all the beloved aspects of its traditional counterpart but welcomes the harvest with open arms. Blending Aperol with fresh apple cider, we then elevate the ensemble with a splash of prosecco for that beloved fizz. Garnished with a large frozen cube of fresh apple slices, star anise, and a cinnamon stick, each sip is a crisp, sparkling celebration of autumn’s bounty.

 

3. Pumpkin Spiced Latte (Cocktail Edition)
No fall menu is complete without a nod to pumpkin spice, and at Room 38, we’ve embraced the season’s mascot with our spirited take on a Pumpkin Spiced Latte. This isn’t your average coffee house brew; we mix Vanilla Vodka with Licor 43 for a velvety base, then swirl in pumpkin spice and cold brew for that quintessential fall flavor. Topped with cinnamon sweet foam, this cocktail is a cozy, creamy delight that balances sophistication with the nostalgic joy of the season.

4. Campfire Mule
Imagine gathering around a fire, the aroma of toasted marshmallows in the air, under a moonlit sky—our Campfire Mule is all that in a cup. We begin with Elijah Craig Toasted Bourbon for its deep, smoky undertones then add a twist of lemon and a dash of agave for sweetness. Ginger beer brings its signature zing, creating a complex foundation that’s both spicy and sweet. The pièce de résistance is a toasted marshmallow garnish, adding a hint of campfire charm to every sip.

At Room 38, we believe that cocktails should tell a story, evoke emotion, and celebrate seasons. Each of our fall featured cocktails has been crafted with careful consideration to bring not just a drink, but an experience to the table. So, wrap up in your favorite sweater, gather your friends, and join us for an evening of autumnal indulgence. Whether you’re craving something cozy, crisp, innovative, or nostalgic, our fall flavors promise a match for every mood. Cheers to falling leaves, cozy evenings, and unforgettable nights at Room 38.
