This Old Fashioned has a deep rich pumpkin flavor and is a delightful cocktail for Fall. Some might question whether this is an “improvement” on the classic old fashioned, but make it for yourself and you be the judge. We use maple syrup as the sweetener and a hint of bitters to give an added layer of complexity without overshadowing the pumpkin. You’ll need to shake this cocktail in order to break-up the purée, and we choose to serve it in a coupe glass because it pours out murky. If you like the bold pumpkin flavor in this cocktail, check out our Jack-o-Lantern or Pieter’s Pumpkin recipes. Cheers!
