Ingredients
Pumpkin Syrup
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Cocktail
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 lemon wedge plus ½ ounce fresh lemon juice
- 1½ ounces brandy
- ¾ ounce orange liqueur such as Cointreau
- 1 ounce Pumpkin Syrup
Instructions
- To make the pumpkin syrup, combine the brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and 1 cup of water in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat just until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture begins to boil, four to six minutes. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the pumpkin puree and salt until smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Allow the syrup to cool completely.
- On a small plate, stir together the sugar and pumpkin pie spice. Run a lemon wedge around the edge of a coupe glass to moisten, then dip the rim in the sugar mixture to coat.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add the brandy, orange liqueur, lemon juice, and pumpkin syrup. Shake vigorously until thoroughly chilled. Strain into the prepared glass and serve right away. Sip and enjoy.
