Honey Crisp Mountain Cocktail
This ice-cold cocktail still has warmth, thanks to a bounty of spicy autumn flavors. A mix of whiskey and apple brandy form the base of this drink, which we've paired with a honey-sweetened batch of Mediterranean Mountain Tea. With every sip you'll taste different herbs like marjoram, sage, rosemary, and mint, which cut through the bite of spirits. For a final touch of fall, we garnished it with a Cinnamon Toast Spice rim.

Rocky Mountain Pork Loin & Savory Applesauce
Early Fall harvest provides a perfect menu to highlight our Rocky Mountain Rub. Toasted juniper with notes of citrus and pine combine with oregano and savory, black pepper and allspice to give a taste of the mountain high country. Rubbed on pork tenderloin and served on a bed of vinegar-massaged kale and savory applesauce, it makes a hearty meal that is light enough for early fall days. It still hints at summer. The applesauce is a show stopper in its own right, seasoned with brown butter and Poultry Rub. The batch we made for this recipe is pretty big thanks to an abundance of apples in our orchard, and it can be canned to last. If you don't have the volume, just pare it down to make enough for this delightful meal. A quick sauté of crispy leeks with butter and Rocky Mountain Rub is the perfect garnish.

Kala Masala Shrimp Cakes
Kala Masala is an Indian spice blend, named for the dark color of its ingredients, which are often toasted before use. Sweet spices like Cloves and tangy Amchoor make this blend an excellent seasoning on seafood, and especially good on shellfish.We used Kala Masala as the signature flavor in these shrimp cakes, which have sweet potato and rice as the binder and a coconut crust. That also makes them gluten free, for those keeping score. The Rooster Spice aioli, which we whipped up as a dipping sauce, takes no time at all. It's spicy and just a little bit sweet: the perfect accompaniment to these tasty appetizers.

Allspice Panna Cotta
Panna cotta is delicate and not overly sweet, making it a perfect vehicle for showcasing rich and distinctive flavors. For a late summer dessert that pairs well with the bounty of seasonal fruit, we whipped up a batch of this Italian treat and infused it with allspice. This little berry is a gem of a seasoning, layered with warm and complex flavors. Its taste evokes warm, familiar spices like cinnamon, clove and nutmeg, yet remains distinctly its own. Stone fruit like nectarines and cherries make excellent companions for allspice. They're rich and sweet, and make its bold flavors beam!
