31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN
This fall beer is a part of my 31 Days of Halloween. For each day in October, I come up with a cocktail recipe and snack recipe that perfectly matches a scary movie, Halloween movie, or a fun spooky activity. Check it out for all of your Halloween snack and drinking desires!

STRONG, PUMPKIN-Y, & SPICED
Okay, have any of you had summer beer before?! It's this lovely combination of lemonade concentrate, vodka, and a light beer. The lemonade covers the taste of vodka and beer so you end up with this strong fizzy cocktail that's perfect for those hot days during the summer. It's a fan favorite at any college party and an absolute must for 4th of July. This recipe puts a fall twist on summer beer. Instead of lemonade, use apple cider. Instead of a light beer, use a pumpkin ale. Of course, our friend, vodka, is still going to show up to the party as themselves. Mix it all together and you get a bubbly fall-flavored cocktail!
This fall beer was a part of my Halloween trivia night and was so great to sip on while beating my husband at some good ol' trivia. Okay, okay.. fine, he always wins at trivia..
FALL BEER INGREDIENTS
• Apple Cider: You're going to want the fresh apple cider for the best flavor!
• Pumpkin Ale: Really any pumpkin beer will do. Just pick your favorite!
• Vodka: No need to splurge for the fancy vodka for this recipe. The cheap stuff will do the trick just as well.
HOW TO MAKE FALL BEER
To make fall beer, all you need to do is mix everything together. In a large pitcher or measuring cup, combine 24 ounces (3 cups) apple cider and 8 ounces (1 cup) of vodka. Give a good stir then add in 48 ounces (6 cups) of pumpkin beer. Stir, and enjoy! Cheers!
WHAT TO SERVE WITH FALL BEER
• Halloween Snack Board; fall beer just calls for Halloween snacks. A whole board full of 'em! We had both during our Halloween trivia night, and it was a blast.
