Fireball Whiskey

As much as I enjoy trying new things, I tend to not look to whiskey as something I need to explore. I've never been wildly interested in hard alcohol. I am fortunate to know quite a few people who are, and they advised me well...this time.

The beauty of this gem is you can drink it straight, chilled, with no need for a chaser. It actually tastes good. Remember Red Hots? This whiskey will bring you back. The beauty of the cinnamon flavor opens it up for lots of mixing though! So don't get stuck just drinking it straight. Mix it up!

Being that Spring is STILL not here, I will start with a hot drink.

Fireball Hot Toddy

3/4 c hot apple cider (preferably from Delicious Orchards, heated with spice mix)
2 oz Fireball whiskey

Done! Drink and be warm! Throw in a cinnamon stick, if you like being fancy.

Angry Fireball

2 oz Fireball whiskey
1 bottle of Angry Orchard cider

Pour the whiskey in the bottom of a chilled glass. Add the cider and enjoy! It's that easy!

I encourage you to experiment. Anything that might be complemented by cinnamon will probably be a winner.
