Fall Martini Ingredients

• Bailey’s Irish Cream – The martini will get its creamy, sweet texture from the Irish cream. It also serves as a great base for the liqueur. 
• Vodka – We can’t have a martini without alcohol. Well, we could, but where’s the fun in that? Pick your favorite vodka for this martini.
• Pumpkin Spice Liqueur – Some recipes use pumpkin spice seasoning or pumpkin puree. However, the seasoning makes the drink grainy, and the puree is overpowering. This liqueur is the solution.

How to Make a Pumpkin Spice Martini

• Add 1 cup of ice cubes to a cocktail shaker.
• Pour 2 ounces of Bailey’s Irish Cream over ice.

• Add 1 ounce of vodka and 1 ounce of pumpkin spice liqueur.
• Cover and shake until well chilled and the shaker feels cold to the outside touch.

• Strain into a martini glass.
• Top with whipped topping around the inner edge of the cocktail glass.

• Sprinkle with nutmeg and ground cinnamon.
• Add 1 cinnamon stick for a beautiful look and to help you mix the whipped topping to your preference as you drink.

How to Garnish a Pumpkin Spice Martini

This pumpkin spice martini with Baileys recipe is one to keep on hand and bring out every fall season. It perfectly encompasses the season in a single glass. We can even take them to the next level with garnishes.

The first step is to use whipped cream. Whipped cream adds a bit of sweetness while not overpowering the spice. Then, sprinkle either cinnamon or nutmeg on the whipped cream.

This gives it a classic, pumpkin pie look and taste. You can even add a cinnamon stick to make the drink more festive if serving on Thanksgiving or during a fall dinner party.
