Autumn Whisper

Description: The Autumn Whisper is a cocktail that embodies the cozy and comforting essence of Thanksgiving. This drink brings together the rich coffee notes of Tia Maria with the warmth of bourbon and the seasonal spice of pumpkin, all harmoniously blended to evoke the spirit of autumn. Topped with a frothy layer and a hint of cinnamon, it’s perfect for sipping by the fire or serving at your Thanksgiving gathering. Ingredients: - 1 oz Tia Maria - 1 oz Bourbon - 1.5 oz Pumpkin puree (unsweetened) - 0.5 oz Maple syrup - 2 dashes of Angostura bitters - 1 large egg white - Grated nutmeg for garnish - Cinnamon stick for garnish Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the Tia Maria, bourbon, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, Angostura bitters, and egg white. 2. Dry shake (shake without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled. 4. Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to create a smooth texture and remove any pulp from the puree. 5. Grate a pinch of nutmeg over the top of the frothy layer for an aromatic garnish. 6. Gently place a cinnamon stick on the froth to serve as a flavorful stirrer and garnish. Glass: Serve in a chilled coupe glass for an elegant and sophisticated presentation.
