This cocktail recipe is so easy and is a fall favorite of ours. At first the pumpkin seems like it might be odd but it's in just the right ratio that it plays well with the rest of the flavors present in the drink. We went a bit light on the bourbon in this recipe but next time we'd probably make it a touch stronger, just a personal preference. Another option for liquor may be rum or vodka depending on what sort of flavor you're looking for. We thought the cinnamon and bourbon went well for the warm fall theme of the drink.
