It's that time of year. Time for all things pumpkin, including the world's best pumpkin pie martini.
This has nothing to do with decorating your house for fall. But I think every home needs a little punkin 'tini right now. It will totally complement your fall decor.
A crash course about this cocktail:
It's sweet. It's strong. If it's too much of either, add a bit more heavy cream or Half-n-Half. If you want to get fancy, add a cinnamon sugar rim. You can also make a large batch in a pitcher so you have them ready to go for guests.
Here's the part where you might get mad at me.
The pumpkin spice liqueur is hard to find. Most stores don't buy tons of it because it's a seasonal item.
However.... if you live in Orlando, I got your back. I'm here for you.
I called Total Wine at Colonial Plaza and they have some left. This probably means other Total Wine locations have it too. I also spoke with ABC a while back and they're supposed to get some this year. You can even check the smaller mom and pop shops, which is where I bought mine last year.
And you can order it online from a place like 67Wine.
I made these for a Halloween party last year, and they were a hit. If you can't find everything before Halloween, no reason to fret. These taste great in November too.
