Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 ounces (60 milliliters) bourbon
- 1 ounce (30 milliliters) pumpkin puree
- 1 egg (or egg white, if preferred)
Sweetening Agents:
- 1 ounce (30 milliliters) maple syrup
- 1/2 ounce (15 milliliters) heavy cream
Spices and Garnish:
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Ice
- Cinnamon stick for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Vigorously whisk bourbon, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, egg, heavy cream, and ground cinnamon together in a cocktail shaker until ingredients are thoroughly integrated.
- Fill the shaker with a generous handful of ice cubes, sealing it tightly to prevent leakage.
- Energetically shake the mixture for 15-20 seconds, ensuring a smooth, well-chilled consistency with a luxurious foam forming on top.
- Place a cocktail strainer over a chilled coupe glass to capture any potential ice fragments.
- Gently pour the silky, amber-hued liquid through the strainer, allowing the frothy mixture to cascade elegantly into the glass.
- For an elegant finishing touch, delicately position a whole cinnamon stick vertically along the glass rim, enhancing both visual appeal and aromatic complexity.
Notes
- Swap bourbon for a non-alcoholic alternative like apple cider or chai tea to create a family-friendly version of this festive drink.
- Use a plant-based egg substitute or omit the egg entirely for a vegan-friendly cocktail that still maintains a creamy texture.
- Adjust the maple syrup quantity based on personal sweetness preference, starting with less and gradually adding more to balance the flavors.
- For a smoother consistency, strain the pumpkin puree through a fine-mesh sieve before mixing to remove any fibrous bits and ensure a silky-smooth cocktail.
