From crisp piles of red and yellow leaves to vibrant orange pumpkin patches, there is no shortage of picturesque autumn views to marvel in as the seasons change. For any budding or pro mixologist, this season is also marked by Canada’s fall harvest, which brings a new variety of ingredients to choose from to make the perfect picturesque fall cocktail. As you look to cosy up at home for another season of intimate or virtual gatherings, try your hand at a simple-to-make, elevated cocktail made with a truly authentic Canadian spirit, Northern Keep Vodka. —Vita Daily

1 oz. Islay Peated Scotch
