Pumpkin Old-Fashioned

This post is sponsored in conjunction with PumpkinWeek. I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the PumpkinWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

The Pumpkin Old-Fashioned — the classic cocktail of bourbon and orange liqueur gets an autumn twist with pumpkin puree and maple syrup.

It's the final day of #PumpkinWeek. I hope you've found at least a few good recipes that you want to try soon. It's also the last day to get in on the giveaway, and win one of three prizes, so hop over to Monday's post and enter!

I'm lifting a glass in farewell to PumpkinWeek with an autumn twist on an American classic, the Old-Fashioned. Yes, this cocktail has ACTUAL pumpkin in it!

In addition to the classic ingredients of bourbon and orange liqueur (preferably Grand Marnier), this cocktail contains maple syrup and pumpkin puree. As long as you thoroughly shake your cocktail shaker, everything will blend together smoothly.

This would make a fantastic before-dinner drink for any of the upcoming fall holidays. You could even mix up the bourbon, maple syrup, orange liqueur and bitters in advance and keep it chilled, then simply add 3 ounces of your mixture plus 2 tablespoon of pumpkin puree per drink to your cocktail shaker to make this cocktail to-order!
