Ingredients
Scale
For the Rim:
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground Cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground Ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground Cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground Nutmeg
(Or 4 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice)
1/4 cup Water, for dipping
For the Martini:
3 ounces Vodka
1 ounce Baileys Pumpkin Spice
1/2 ounce Half and Half
1/2 ounce Pumpkin Pie Syrup (in the coffee section)
a pinch ground Pumpkin Spice
1/2-1 cup Crushed Ice
Freshly Grated Nutmeg, garnishment, optional
Instructions
Mix together 1/2 cup sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg for the rim. You can use 4 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice instead.
Pour 1/4 cup of cold water into a saucer large enough to dip a martini glass.
Add the Spice Pumpkin Sugar mixture to another large saucer.
Turn the martini glass upside down and dip the rim into the water. Shake excess water off.
In a cocktail shaker, add 3 ounces vodka, 1 ounce Bailey's Pupkin Spice, 1/2 ounce Half and Half, 1/2 ounce Pumpkin Pie Syrup, and a pinch of ground pumpkin spice.
Add crushed ice. Shake Vigorously. Strain into spiced sugared rim martini glasses.
Sprinkle some ground nutmeg on top (optional).
ENJOY!
Notes
Use a shallow large saucer (big enough for the whole martini rim) with about 1/4 inch of water, another shallow saucer with about a 1/4-inch of the pumpkin pie spiced sugar.
The cocktails should be blended vigorously and poured from the shaker cold and crisp (with tiny ice particles floating on top of the martini).
Use a frosted glass straight from your freezer. Not only does this create a glass that is pretty and all, but it serves as a "chilling" function as well.
