PUMPKINTINI
1 part pumpkin spice liqueur
1 part vanilla vodka
Pumpkin-flavored spirits will only be around a little bit longer. While they are still here and before the shelves are filled with peppermint liquors and other Christmas nonsense, pick some up. There are many ways to drink pumpkin liquor, including the PUMPKINTINI. To make it, mix the two ingredients above into a short cocktail glass with ice.
The spicey PUMPKINTINI, while good, is only for the pumpkin devotees in your life. It is definitely similar to drinking a pumpkin, but the flavor was balanced well by the vanilla vodka. Regular vodka just wouldn't have been the same. The PUMPKINTINI was thick, sweet, and syrupy. It also had a great smell. Definitely a great fall weekend kick off cocktail.

Enjoyed this at Emmet's Restaurant in Palatine, IL. It was delicious. I had to purchase the ingredients because the pumpkin liquer was flying off the shelves and didn't want to wait until next year. I am not the only pumpkin lover.
