I love to share great cocktails with you around the holidays. It’s always fun to sip something festive on a special occasion, I think.
Today I’m sharing this delicious Pumpkin Pie Martini that tastes even better than it sounds. With a graham cracker crusted rim, vanilla vodka, pumpkin, and more, it’s bound to be a hit with your guests. It really does taste like you are sipping a pumpkin pie!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your friends and family. See you next week with lots of new recipes for the holiday season!
Pumpkin Pie Martini
This is a fun recipe for fall. I make it for my friends when they swing by and we always enjoy the decadence of a cocktail that tastes like dessert!
Makes 1
1-ounce maple syrup, plus a little extra for rimming the glass
Graham cracker crumbs for the rim
2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
3-ounces vanilla vodka
2-ounces dark rum
1-ounce half and half
Dip the rim of a martini glass in a little bit of the maple syrup, then dip the rim in graham cracker crumbs.
Add the pumpkin puree, vanilla vodka, dark rum, half and half, and maple syrup to a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake very well to blend.
Pour the drink into the rimmed martini glass and serve!
