Servings Martini

Ingredients

2 oz. Vodka or Vanilla-Flavoured Vodka
1 oz. Pumpkin-Flavoured Syrup (or pumpkin spice liqueur)
1 oz. Irish Cream Liqueur (such as baileys)
1 oz. Half-and-half or Heavy Cream
½ tsp Pumpkin Spice
Ice Cubes

For Garnish (optional)

Cinnamon Sugar (for rimming the glass)
Whipped Cream
Sprinkle of Pumpkin Spice or Nutmeg
Cinnamon Stick

Instructions

Start by rimming your martini glass with cinnamon sugar (see notes). To do this, rub a slice of orange or lemon around the rim, then dip it into a plate of cinnamon sugar.
In a cocktail shaker, add vodka, pumpkin spice syrup (or liqueur), Irish cream liqueur, heavy cream, and pumpkin pie spice. Fill the shaker with ice cubes.
Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds, or until well-chilled.
Strain the mixture into your prepared martini glass. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and a light sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or garnish with a cinnamon stick.

Notes

To make cinnamon sugar, simply mix equal parts of cinnamon and sugar on a plate until well combined.

Optional: For a truly refreshing experience (and in proper bartender fashion), chill your martini glass in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes before pouring in the cocktail.
