A classic dessert martini that tastes just like pumpkin pie in a glass with a bit of vodka. It is a perfect end to a great Autumn meal.
1 shot vodka (the small end of a jigger)
3 tablespoons half and half
1 tablespoon canned pure pumpkin puree
1 – 2 tablespoon(s) maple syrup, to taste
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, more for dusting the top of the drink
1 tablespoon whipped cream
In a martini shaker filled with ice, combine the vodka, half and half, pumpkin puree, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ⅛ teaspoon of the pumpkin pie spice. Shake vigorously. Using a teaspoon, taste for sweetness and if needed, add the other 1 tablespoon maple syrup. Shake again until very cold on the outside of the shaker. Strain into a martini glass.
Sprinkle the pumpkin pie spice on top of the liquid and float a tablespoon on whipped cream.
Enjoy.
