I bought myself a bottle of pumpkin spice liqueur.
My friends recommended it, and I felt like I should buy some since it is a seasonal thing ... and I do love pumpkin spice. But now that I have it, I don't know what the hell to do with it.
I check out a few websites: Pumpkin-tini drinks seem to be this week's and every week's favorite. But there's something else, too. I can bake with that stuff. Rum raisin pumpkin bread? Kahlua pumpkin pie? I'm all over those bad boys.
The pumpkin-tini does sound good, though, with a big honkin' slice of spiced pumpkin bread or pumpkin pie. I love pumpkin flavored stuff.
I even have a pumpkin pie scented car freshener clipped on and sticking out of the air vents on the car. Every time I turn on the vents (heat or AC -- both are used at the same time between cold New England mornings and warm New England afternoons) it smells like a bakery inside my vehicle.
If you have any pumpkin spice liqueur recipes, send 'em on over. I'm thinking perhaps there's a recipe for warm pumpkin liqueur sauce to spoon over vanilla ice cream. Or maybe even a pumpkin liqueur shake. Pumpkin liqueur cookies? Oh ... peanut butter pumpkin liqueur cookies...with brown sugar...
Okay, people, help me out here. Hiram Walker and I are counting on you.
