Delightful seasonal after dinner treat. Spiced Pumpkin Coffee has strong cinnamon and pumpkin flavors.
Hot cocktail time!! I know it’s not winter (barely even fall) yet but I felt like a hot cocktail.
All this pumpkin excitement around and obviously, I can’t get enough of it. I really wanted to make a pumpkin pie martini but changed my mind at the last second. I was at the wine store and saw Rumchata, that was it. I’ve been meaning to get some and try it in coffee for the longest time. So I did! Have you had Rumchata yet? It’s cinnamon flavored creamy liqueur and it is really good.
Next, what goes very well with cinnamon? Why pumpkin, of course! So now we have pumpkin, we have cinnamon creamy liqueur and coffee. Almost perfect…
What I needed to do was spice it up some more. Fireball! Pow!
Cinnamon/sugar rim is completely optional here. It would really depend on your sweet tooth. If you like sweet cocktails or desserts, then go for it. Otherwise, I’d recommend omitting it. It looks really nice but I did end up wiping some of it off because I found it a little too sweet for me. (I wipe off sugar rims when I’m out at a bar too. Just personal preference.)
Spiced Pumpkin After-Dinner Coffee
