Pumpkin Pie Vodka Cocktails = all the yes

Written by Bryce

Pumpkin pie vodka cocktails exist, combining your refined autumn self with your basic love of pumpkin spice everything.

The ABSOLUT Pumpkin Mule cocktail is a sort of modern twist on pumpkin pie vodka glory, grown up pumpkin spice, and the perfect accompaniment to just about any cool-weather get together (hello, Halloween and Thanksgiving cocktails, #amirite?). If you want to get wild, try adding a splash of butterscotch schnapps to the mix. And no need to get super fancy here—you can even use one of the best cheap alcohol brands.

ABSOLUT Pumpkin Mule

Ingredients:

  •         Glass or Copper mug
  •         1.5oz Absolut
  •         1oz black tea
  •        .5oz pumpkin spice syrup (Monin or other)
  •        .5oz lemon juice

Prep:

1.       Shake all ingredients with ice

2.       Strain over ice in a copper mug

3.       Top with Ginger Beer

4.       Garnish with a star anise pod

Consider pairing with actual pumpkin pie, Thai-inspired chicken satay skewers, seasonal salads, or a selection of dried fruits and dark chocolate. It’s a nice contrast to summery drinks like peach schnapps or watermelon schnapps.
