A set of measuring cups and spoons will help to get the quantities just right.
You’ll also want a whisk for stirring the punch until smooth.

Finally, a ladle and some glasses will be essential for serving.

Ingredients

Here’s a list of what you’ll need:

1 cup pumpkin puree 🥄
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
2 cups apple cider
1 cup ginger ale
1/2 cup spiced rum optional

First, mix the pumpkin puree and brown sugar in your bowl until well combined.

Next, add the cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, stirring well to integrate the spices.
Pour in the apple cider, ginger ale, and spiced rum if using. Whisk everything together until smooth.

Notes

For a personal twist, consider the type of rum you like best. You could try a different flavored rum or even leave it out for a non-alcoholic option. If you find it too sweet, add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice for balance.

I enjoy making this punch ahead of time and chilling it in the fridge. Remember to add the ginger ale just before serving to keep it fizzy. Feel free to get creative with garnishes and make it as festive as you’d like. 🎉

Substitute

Looking to switch up your Spiced Pumpkin Punch Cocktail? I’ve got you covered! 🎃

If you don’t have pumpkin spice on hand, try mixing a bit of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. This will give you a classic fall flavor.

Out of rum? No worries! Vodka or bourbon can make your punch just as delightful. Each adds its unique taste to the mix.

For a non-alcoholic twist, simply replace the liquor with sparkling water or apple cider. You still get that festive feeling without the buzz.
