A “spiked” milkshake from C+M.

25 Degrees
The casual burger joint at the Hollywood Roosevelt blends a slew of spiked milkshakes to enjoy with their juicy hamburgers, including the Salty Caramel Shake made with Maker’s Mark Butterscotch, vanilla ice cream, and Hawaiian red sea salt. If you’re in the mood for something a little lighter, try the orange soda, with Stoli Ohranj, Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur, orange soda, and orange juice. 7000 Hollywood Blvd., LA, 323-785-7244

Bigfoot West
This hipster-heavy Westside spot is known for its whiskey drinks, but sweets cravers can also enjoy a special treat this winter called the Punkin’ Spice Tini, with a healthy helping of Stoli Vanil, house-made pumpkin purée, Irish cream and whipped cream, and topped with a dash of cinnamon and allspice. It’s only available through the holidays though, otherwise, you’ll have to wait ‘til next year. 10939 Venice Blvd., LA, 310-287-2200

C+M
Patina Restaurant Group’s latest restaurant is a chef-driven coffeehouse that pushes espresso drinks and Intelligentsia Coffee during the day to sip alongside pastries like gourmet “pop tarts.” Come evening, though, you can swill spiked milkshakes whose flavors change daily and blend creamy “milk sorbet” made with Straus Family Creamery milk with artisanal spirits like Elijah Craig 12 Years Old whiskey. LACMA, 5905 Wilshire Blvd., LA, 323-857-6180

The Golden State
Intoxicatingly bubbly with a dash of nostalgia, beer floats are all the rage nowadays, partly pioneered by the draftsmen over at The Golden State. The one here comes with a scoop of gourmet gelato by Tai Kim tranquilly buoyed by a glass of coffee-colored, molasses-rich Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout. 426 N. Fairfax Ave., LA, 323-782-8331

Kitchen 24
Everyone in Weho’s on a liquid diet, so of course this gleaming diner even serves desserts in a cocktail glass, including the Naughty Strawberry Shortcake with Three Olives cake vodka, Tres Leches Triple Cream Liqueur, strawberry purée, strawberry ice cream, and house-made shortcake cubes topped with fresh-cut strawberries. 8575 Santa Monica Blvd., West Hollywood, 424-777-0959

Laurel Hardware
Chances are you won’t have any room for dessert after enjoying chef Mario Alberto’s seasonally inspired menus at this sleek, new celebrity favorite, so why not indulge in a sweet cocktail to end the evening instead? The Creeping Fig with Woodford Reserve Double Oaked bourbon, Pimm’s No. 1, lemon juice, fig, black tea, and walnut bitters is both rich and refreshing. 7984 Santa Monica Blvd., West Hollywood, 323-656-6070

Rivera
Before winter really sets in, you might be able to sneak in one last Autumn Sour at John Sedlar’s haute-Mexican hot spot. With D’Anjou pear–infused rye whiskey, bonded apple brandy, lemon, cinnamon bark syrup, egg white, and dehydrated apple chips, you’ll never crave apple pie again. 1050 S. Flower St., No. 102, LA, 213-749-1460

Sotto
Skip the cannoli and panna cotta on the dessert menu here and instead order the Bourbon Milk Punch with Eagle Rare Single Barrel bourbon whiskey and Amaro CioCiaro, concocted with house-made, toasted almond–infused milk; grated cinnamon; and 100 percent chocolate for a taste that’s truly inventive. 9575 W. Pico Blvd., LA, 310-277-0210
