Like much of the US, I tend to go a little nutso about pumpkin stuff in the fall. Even though I’m not a big coffee drinker I am a big fan of iced pumpkin spice lattes. So when I got some of the new Barnie’s CoffeeKitchen BREWSTICKS I decided to try and make my own iced pumpkin spice latte. THEN I got the brilliant idea to make it into a cocktail. Sounds fun huh?
To start you need to make some pumpkin spice syrup. Combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup water, and 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice in a small pan. Heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved completely. Let it cool, strain into a container, and keep it in a sealed container for up to two weeks in the fridge.
Here is what you need for your cocktail:
6 oz soy or almond milk
4 oz coffee – made using Hazelnut BREWSTICKS
2 tbls pumpkin spice syrup
2 oz marshmallow vodka
Fill a shaker with ice and add all your ingredients. Give it a hearty shake! Pour into a martini glass. To make it a little more festive I rimmed the glass with orange sugar. You could also use a cinnamon sugar mixture to give your drink a little extra kick.
Wow, that looks super yummy! I’m going to have to try that. Or you can just come over to my house and make me come. Either way will work. 😉
Sounds like a plan Diana 🙂
That looks incredible. And I can officially drink again!!! Woot Woot!!!! Imma need to make one of those STAT!!!
You totally should Haley!
