Fall cocktails have a certain magic to them. You want something refreshing that still feels cozy, something that matches the brisk air but warms you from the inside out. And if it happens to be incredibly easy to make? Even better! That’s why I’m always searching for drinks that bring seasonal comfort without requiring a mixology degree. So, when I saw @thebarstones share a root beer cocktail on TikTok, it stopped me mid-scroll. Not only did this look like a simple-yet-delicious beverage I could recreate myself, the base of the drink also stood out to me. A lot of cocktails lean on Coca-Cola, but root beer instantly gives a slightly spicy fall twist. I was instantly intrigued, and I'm sure you will be too. One sip and you'll see it’s basically a grown-up version of a root beer float.From how to make the root beer cocktail yourself, to substitutions and variations that would be worth trying (including a mocktail), here's everything you need to know to make this fun drink at home.Related: ‘Outlander’ Star Sam Heughan Shares How To Make His Favorite Fall Cocktail: It’s a ‘Great Party Pleaser’ (Exclusive)

If you like the idea of this drink, but dark rum isn’t your favorite liquor, spiced rum is an even cozier option. You can also use bourbon for a warm, deep flavor or vanilla vodka for a sweeter, dessert-like take.
You can also lean into the fall spices by adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg on top. It melts into the Irish cream and enhances the root beer’s natural spice.

Root Beer Mocktail
Looking for a family-friendly or sober-friendly version? You can fill a glass with ice, add root beer, then stir in a splash of cold sweet cream or half-and-half plus a little vanilla extract. It still gives you that “float” effect but without the alcohol or the curdling risk.If you want a deeper flavor, add a dash of molasses or caramel syrup to stand in for the rum’s richness.Related: The Simple Way To Turn Ginger Ale Into a Fancy Fall Drink
