For the gourmet cheeseball
In a bowl mix together cheeses, garlic powder, 2 tbsp chives, thyme, honey and 1/4 cup chopped walnuts. Put the mixture into the fridge for 10-15 minutes - this will help make it easier to shape the ball.
Remove from the fridge and use your hands to form the mixture into a ball. Roll the cheeseball in the remaining chopped walnuts. Place the cheeseball into the fridge again for at least 15 minutes or until ready to serve.
While the cheeseball is in the fridge, make the crispy baguette. Preheat the oven to 375F. Using a bread knife, slice the baguette into 1-inch thick slices. Brush the baguette slices with olive oil on one side and place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast for 10 minutes total, flipping halfway through. Set aside.
Serve the cheeseball with crispy baguette and garnish the plate with seasonal fruit like figs and apples.
For the spicy apple margarita
To make one cocktail: On a small plate, stir together jalapeno salt and pinch of cinnamon. Wet the outer edge of the cocktail glass using the wedge of lime, then press it into the jalapeno salt and cinnamon mixture.
To a cocktail shaker add Ritual Zero Proof Tequila Alternative, apple cider and orange juice - shake well to combine. Pour into a rimmed glass filled will ice. Garnish with thinly sliced apple and enjoy!
