Tips & Tricks

Mixing up a Pumpkin White Russian is fun and simple. 🎃 Let me share a few tips to make it even better.

  • Chill the Glass: I love starting with a chilled glass. It keeps the drink cool and refreshing.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Use real pumpkin puree and a dash of pumpkin spice. Trust me, it makes all the difference!
  • Creamy Texture: Add a splash of cream or milk. It makes the drink smooth and creamy, just the way I like it.

Want a stronger taste? Increase the vodka a tiny bit, but don’t overdo it. Always sip and see how it feels.

Ice Size Matters! I usually use larger ice cubes. They melt slowly and prevent my drink from becoming watery.

If you’re feeling adventurous, try a cinnamon stick as a stirrer. It gives a little extra spice.

Finally, don’t forget to give it a good shake or stir. This helps the flavors blend nicely.
