As we are now well and truly in the holiday season I have noticed a lot of bars with variations of seasonal Moscow Mules on their menus, and so I wanted to make one I thought would be great for the holidays. Pumpkin spice really can’t be avoided during the holidays, so I am partnering with Smirnoff to embrace it and take it to the next level with a delicious Moscow Mule variation featuring Smirnoff Vanilla and pumpkin spice syrup! It was so easy to put together and I bet your local bartender could even make it. If they can’t, then check out the recipe below for you to make it at your next gathering.
Recipe:
- ¾ ounce Smirnoff No. 21 vodka
- ¾ ounce Smirnoff Vanilla
- ¾ ounce pumpkin spice syrup (pumpkin pie spice, sugar & water)
- Top with ginger beer
Method:
Pumpkin Spice Syrup:
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
Method:
- Mix pumpkin pie spice with sugar and water in a small saucepan
- Bring to boil
- Remove from heat and stir until sugar granules dissolve
- Set aside or refrigerate to chill
Smirnoff Vanilla #PSM:
- Combine Smirnoff No. 21 vodka, Smirnoff Vanilla and pumpkin spice syrup in a cocktail shaker with ice
- Shake to chill and combine ingredients
- Strain into copper Moscow Mule mug (it keeps the cocktail cold!)
- Top with ginger beer
- Garnish with cinnamon stick and rosemary
I don’t think you’ll find a better tasting cocktail around, enjoy!
