Ingredients

  • 2 oz Kahlua
  • 1 oz Vodka
  • 1.5 oz Pumpkin puree
  • 1.5 oz Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer or Heavy Cream
  • 1 tsp pumpkin spice
  • Ice

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients to a cocktail shaker, except the kahlua. Shake well.
  • Fill a glass with ice and add the kahlua, strain the cocktail into the glass.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Garnish with ground cinnamon and a cinnamon stick.

Notes

  • Chill your glassware: Before preparing your cocktail, place the glass in the freezer for a few minutes to chill it. This will help keep your drink cold for longer.
  • Use quality ingredients: Opt for a good quality vodka and Kahlua to ensure a delicious and smooth cocktail. The pumpkin puree should be of good quality as well to impart the best flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness to taste: Taste the pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice coffee creamer (or heavy cream) before adding them to the cocktail shaker. Depending on your preference and the sweetness of the ingredients, you may want to adjust the amounts slightly to achieve the desired level of sweetness.
  • Shake vigorously: When shaking the ingredients in the cocktail shaker, be sure to shake it vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This will help to thoroughly mix and chill the ingredients, creating a well-balanced drink.
  • Strain properly: To ensure a smooth and silky texture, strain the cocktail into the glass using a fine-mesh strainer. This will help remove any lumps or clumps from the pumpkin puree, resulting in a more visually appealing drink.
  • Experiment with garnishes: While the recipe suggests garnishing with ground cinnamon and a cinnamon stick, feel free to get creative with your garnishes. You can sprinkle a pinch of nutmeg or pumpkin spice on top, add a dollop of whipped cream, or even include a few crushed graham crackers for added texture and flavor.
  • Serve immediately: The Easy Pumpkin Spice White Russian is best enjoyed fresh and cold. - - -
  • Serve it immediately after preparing to savor its flavors at their peak.
  • Make it ahead: If you're hosting a gathering or want to pre-prep the cocktail, you can mix the Kahlua, vodka, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin spice coffee creamer (or heavy cream) in advance.
  • Keep this mixture refrigerated until ready to serve. When it's time to enjoy, simply pour the mixture over ice in individual glasses and garnish as desired.
