Let's just pretend that the weather is changing, even though we're half way through September and Halloween and Thanksgiving decorations are on store shelves across the US. If it's not too early to buy candy corns, then it's not too early to enjoy a Pumpkin Spice White Russian!
Ingredients
2 ounces vodka
1.5 ounces Bailey's (original flavor)
1 ounce half and half
1 ounce pumpkin spice syrup*
honey or agave
nonpareils
cinnamon stick
Directions
*To make the pumpkin spice syrup, combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup water, and 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice in a small pan. Heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved completely. Let it cool, strain into a container, and keep it in a sealed container for up to two weeks in the fridge.
Fill a glass with ice and combine vodka, Bailey's, half and half, and syrup. Stir and serve. You may need to do this repeatedly as this drink is just too good for one or two.
