FAQs:

What is a White Russian made with?Vodka, Kahlua, and cream are the ingredients in this classic cocktail. You can create a layered cocktail by adding the vodka and Kahlua to a glass of ice then pouring the cream over the top. Or, add the ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice, and shake to combine the ingredients into a creamy, frothy cocktail.

Ingredients for a Pumpkin Spice White Russian:

• Vodka: I used Tito’s, but use any vodka you like.
• Kahlua: Any coffee flavored liqueur will work.
• Half and half: Makes the cocktail super creamy.
• Pumpkin spice: Use store-bought, or make your own.

Ingredient Tip:

• No pumpkin spice? Make your own blend. Mix together 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ½ teaspoon nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ginger, ¼ teaspoon cloves, and ⅛ teaspoon cardamom.

How to Make a Pumpkin Spice White Russian:

• Add the vodka and Kahlua to a rocks glass filled with ice, then top with the half and half.
• Pour the mixture into a shaker, add the pumpkin spice, and give it a few good shakes. Pour back into the rocks glass, and serve.

Serving Suggestions:

• Add a tasty rim to the glass by combining coconut sugar with pumpkin spice. Simply dip the rim of the glass in maple syrup, then dip in the sugar mixture.
• Sprinkle a dash of nutmeg on top of the prepared cocktail.
• Add a cinnamon stick for garnish.
• Add some fall appetizers to your cocktail party: Pumpkin Pie Dessert Hummus, Crab Stuffed Mushrooms, New England Bean Dip, Smoked Salmon Spread, or Skillet Spinach Artichoke Dip.

Ingredient Substitutions:

• Ground pumpkin spice: You could also opt for a premade pumpkin spice creamer in place of the half and half and ground spices, but the resulting cocktail will be much sweeter.
