Ingredients
Scale
For the Cocktail
- 3 ounces vodka (2 shots)
- 3 ounces pumpkin spice creamer (2 shots)
- 1.5 ounces Kahlúa coffee liqueur (1 shot)
- Ice cubes
- Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (plus more for garnish)
For the Rim
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar or sparkling sugar
- 3 tablespoons crushed graham crackers
Instructions
- Prepare the Glasses: Mix the granulated sugar and crushed graham crackers together on a shallow plate. Wet the rims of two glasses by dipping them briefly in water, then dip the rims into the graham cracker mixture, pressing gently to coat evenly. Set the glasses aside.
- Mix the Cocktail: In a large cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, pumpkin spice creamer, and Kahlúa coffee liqueur. Fill the shaker with ice and shake lightly until the ingredients are well combined and chilled.
- Serve: Pour the mixed cocktail into the prepared glasses filled with ice. Top each drink with a dollop of whipped cream if desired, then sprinkle with additional pumpkin pie spice to garnish.
Notes
- The graham cracker and sugar rim adds a delightful texture and sweetness to complement the creamy cocktail.
- You can adjust the amount of pumpkin pie spice to your preference for a stronger or milder autumn flavor.
- For a non-alcoholic version, substitute vodka and Kahlúa with coffee or coffee-flavored syrup and increase the pumpkin spice creamer.
- Make sure to shake the cocktail well but gently to avoid overly diluting with ice.
