Pumpkin Puree

Vodka

Pumpkin Pie Spice

Orange (sliced for garnish)

In a large pitcher or punch bowl whisk the apple cider and pumpkin puree together until smooth.

This is my second time making this - it’s really good! The first time, I followed the recipe exactly. The second time around, I accidentally doubled the maple syrup by adding a tablespoon instead of half. For the bourbon lovers, the full strength is attenuated but the extra sweetness of the maple brings out all the other wonderful flavors. For my palate, I’d adjust the recipe with 3/4 to a weak tbsp of maple syrup. Either way, this is a great autumnal take on the classic old fashioned, one of my fav cocktails!

I like the fall pumpkin flavors in this drink! The only substitution I made was to use brandy instead of whiskey. I'm in Wisconsin and couldn't bear not to use brandy. After taste testing, it seemed just a little too heavy, so I topped it off with club soda, and it did the trick! Is that wrong? 😬
