This elegant little fall galette is studded with whiskey-soaked cranberries.

The caramelized flavor of bourbon and the tang of sour cream add balance to the rich, spiced filling of this cheesecake. Chopped pecans add a nutty dimension to the graham cracker crust.

This pie is both sweet and salty, which is my favorite dessert combination. The smoky bacon, mingling with the spiced apples and bourbon crust, is heavenly.

Adding bourbon and Campari to cherry cola makes for a sweet, spicy, and refreshing backyard drink.

Skip the same old boring barbecue sauce and opt for a sticky malt vinegar, bourbon, and maple syrup glaze to slick up these boiled-and-baked pork ribs.

This festive, spiced toddy starts with a black tea base. English breakfast tea is especially good with the black pepper and star anise, but Earl Grey would be nice, too.

America's favorite pumpkin purée is actually made from squash, so why not turn to the earthy sweetness of fresh butternut squash? It's dead easy to prepare at home and tastes more vibrantly "pumpkin" than anything from a can.

Bourbon-honey syrup and fragrant orange zest add rich flavor to this alternative to the usual Thanksgiving dessert.

This simple jam is full of fresh peach flavor with hints of vanilla and bourbon.

Highwest’s Campfire whiskey is a blend of Scotch, bourbon, and rye; a gently peaty blended Scotch is the next best thing.
