If fall had a signature drink… this would be it! Meet the Cider Plane — a cozy autumn twist on the classic Paper Plane made with Nonino Amaro.

Spiced Cider Plane: A Festive Fall Cocktail



’Tis the season for all the cozy and delicious drinks! This Cider Plane puts a fall twist on the classic Paper Plane cocktail, infused with warm spices from spiced cider and paired with the iconic trio of Amaro Nonino, Aperol, and bourbon. It’s the perfect sip to welcome the new season.

I partnered with my friends Amaro Nonino over on Instagram to create a fun, fall cocktail and here’s what I came up with.

Why you’ll love this Spiced Cider Plane??

  • Super easy to make.
  • The perfect cocktail for fall.
  • Customizable

Apple Cider is the drink of the fall so why not make another fall cocktail with it. The paper plane is already a well balanced cocktail so adding Spiced Cider and maple syrup gives it the perfect fall touch.

How to make Spiced Cider Plane?

It’s super easy to make. Rim glass with maple syrup and cinnamon sugar, then place in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.

Add the chilled apple cider, Amaro Nonino, Aperol, Bourbon Whiskey, maple syrup, fresh lemon juice and ice to a cocktail shaker.

Ingredients for Cider Plane?

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious fall cocktail:

  • Spiced Apple Cider: Use a good-quality cider for the best flavor — or make your own for an extra cozy touch! (Here’s my Homemade Apple Cider Recipe)
  • Amaro Nonino: A smooth Italian liqueur that adds depth and a touch of herbal sweetness. It’s a key part of the classic Paper Plane.
  • Aperol: Brings a bright, slightly bitter citrus flavor that balances the sweetness from the cider and maple syrup.
  • Bourbon Whiskey: Gives the perfect richness and depth.
  • Maple Syrup: Helps sweeten the cocktail.
  • Lemon Juice: fresh is best.
  • Ice: to keep things chill
  • Cinnamon Sugar: to rim the cocktail
