Pumpkin Pie In A Glass!
Looking to increase your good cheer for Thanksgiving? Permit me to recommend the Smashing Pumpkin Martini, made with home-infused spiced pumpkin vodka. Infusing the vodka requires a week, so you’re just in time to pull it together for your holiday celebrations. I’ve been coming back to this recipe in the fall for several years; it makes a deep-orange martini that smells shockingly like a pumpkin pie. If you can’t find vanilla or cinnamon vodka, no worries — cinnamon sticks work just fine and the vanilla beans already called for are in my opinion plenty of vanilla. I like to throw in a whole nutmeg and a few cloves to round things out, so feel free to adjust per your favorite pie spices. Enjoy!
OMG! These are SO tasty – and so strong, they can knock you flat out in under an hour. Be sure to eat lots of turkey and potatoes and delicious holiday carbohydrates beforehand.
(And you can also top off the rim with brown sugar!!!)
Ha. I was just having a conversation with a friend about whether graham cracker crumbs might be a good idea…
