Description
This pumpkin spice espresso martini is the perfect fall twist on the classic cocktail! It matches pumpkin butter with bourbon, baileys, and espresso for such a delightful fall treat. Bourbon and pumpkin are an ideal match, so this version switches the vodka out for bourbon whiskey and Kahlua out for baileys, a whiskey-based liqueur.

The pumpkin butter can make this cocktail a little grainy, if you you prefer a smoother drink use 1 ounce of the pumpkin spice syrup from this pumpkin spice old fashioned. However the pumpkin flavor is much more noticeable with the pumpkin butter.
