Pumpkin Pie Martini

Why we love this pumpkin pie martini

• Dessert drinks are the best. I mean, if you’re going to consume those calories, you might as well fully indulge, and this pumpkin cocktail is the way to do it.
• Even if you aren’t a big fan of pumpkin pie, I dare you try this cocktail. It’s perfectly creamy and sweet, with just enough pumpkin to make it feel like the ultimate Thanksgiving cocktail.

Ingredients & substitutions

• Pumpkin puree – You want to buy plain old pureed pumpkin, not pre-made pumpkin pie filling.
• Irish cream – This adds sweetness and a creamy texture to the drink. Baileys makes a pumpkin spice flavor, so if you have that, feel free to use it, but regular Irish cream is what we used.
• Whipped cream vodka – If you can’t find this flavor, try vanilla.
• Dark rum – This adds a little complexity to the drink, but if you don’t have it stocked, feel free to skip it.
• Heavy cream – You can use half-and-half, but heavy cream gives this drink a luxurious texture that is unmatched.

How to make this pumpkin martini

Shake until cold. Fill a shaker with ice. Add all ingredients to the cocktail shaker. Shake and strain into a martini glass.
