Who says the night has to end? Linger a little bit with one of these amazing after-dinner cocktail drinks. Whether you want a comforting digestif or something more along the lines of a dessert cocktail, we've got plenty of recipes for nightcaps to help you wind down (or keep the party going). As they say, the night is young! Why not shake up a batch of espresso martinis?

Who doesn't love to sip a bit of Scotch whiskey or cognac after a big dinner? That's the beauty of a digestif! You might be familiar with their pre-dinner counterpart, the aperitif (which helps to open up the appetite and start a meal), while digestifs will help to perk you up after a meal. Classic digestifs involve sipping whiskey, brandy, aged tequilas, or rum simply on the rocks or mixed, as they often have an herbal flavor profile that encourages slowly savoring the drink. If you've ever had a Manhattan, a Negroni, or a Hot Toddy, you likely know just how delicious those taste at the end of the night!

If you like a little dessert with your cocktails, we've got tons of decadent cocktails that feel like a treat in a glass. White Russians are basically like drinking a boozy version of a chocolate coffee milkshake (what's not to love?). It's also impossible to say no to an espresso martini, a nutty Irishman, or hot buttered rum on a crisp fall night. Love some bitter with your sweet? Our recipes for cherry Sazerac and cranberry orange whiskey sour are just for you.
