A spin on one of my favorite cocktails The Yellow Jacket which is a riff on the classic Bees Knees

It’s that marvelous time again….. Halloween ! I have not posted a pumpkin spice cocktail before, but this one is ferocious, and can be made NA (non alcoholic) as well.

HERE’S JOHNNIE

1.5 oz Johnnie Walker Black Label
5 oz Club Soda
1 oz Pumpkin Syrup

To make your own pumpkin syrup:

Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 cup sugar (I use cane sugar, but you can use any sweetener)
2 Tbsp pumpkin puree
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or a blend of 3 Tbsp cinnamon, 2 tsp ginger, 2 tsp nutmeg, 1 tsp clove, 1 tsp allspice, I also like adding in ½ tsp cardamom and ½ tsp cayenne for a kick)

Directions
Combine the sugar and water in a saucepan and heat over medium heat.
Add the pumpkin puree and the spice and stir until everything is dissolved. Do not boil.
Remove from heat and let cool.
Strain through a fine mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth to remove the sediment.

Fun tip! Mix with soda water for your individual sodas afterwards (unless using a soda siphon in which case you already know what to do)

You could also just go out and buy some pumpkin soda as well (R.W. Knudsen, Reading Draft, and Lester’s Fixins, all have specialty seasonal ones, and yes we did just use those at the USBG Columbus party-last week, 50:50 Reading Draft soda with Lester’s)

CHAI ONE

This popular drink was a hit @NYCWFF last weekend. It is the perfect blend of sweet and creamy spice, and can be served hot or cold, also it is dairy free.

So go on and give it a chai (yes puns were thrown all weekend) if you do make this my one ask is to take a picture and enjoy!

1.5 oz @JohnnieWalker Black Label
4 oz chai coconut mix

CHAI SPICE MIX
4 teaspoons ground cardamom
2 teaspoons ground allspice
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 tsp star anise
4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 inch fresh ginger chopped finely (or
5 teaspoons ground ginger)
Mix together and store in an airtight container tub use for later
(You can use whole spices and steep them in the milk and then blitz everything in a blender before fine straining too)

CHAI INGREDIENTS
(for each cocktail minus the booze)
1.5 cups plain coconut milk (any kind of milk works)
2 black tea bags
4 teaspoons homemade chai spice
1 tsp quality vanilla extract
2 tablespoons cane sugar
(you can use any sweetener)
Add coffee to make it dirty

CHAI INSTRUCTIONS
Place coconut milk, tea bags, sugar, and chai spices into a small sauce pan and whisk.
Next, bring to a boil over medium/high heat and immediately remove from heat.
Let the tea seep for 2 minutes.
Remove the tea bags and pour the whole mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheese cloth, add in your vanilla extract.
Add 1.5 oz Johnnie Walker Black Label and enjoy !

If serving cold (allow to cool and then pour over ice)

Cacao Passion
1.5 oz Johnnie Walker Black Label
2 oz Passion Fruit Nectar
.75 oz Passion Fruit Puree
.25 oz Simple Syrup
.5 oz Lemon Juice
4 Dashes @scrappysbitters Chocolate Bitters
Garnish with a @johnniewalker Walker Salted Caramel Brownie from @getcaked.love

San Diego Spirits Festival last weekend was a hit and this winning pairing made it all the more enjoyable. The cocktail was light and refreshing, the cacao notes were subtle but the brownies tied it all together. Plus the acidity of the passion fruit cut through the sweet richness of the brownie….truly a match made in San Diego (AKA weather heaven)

Now for all those that were asking for the recipe, you can create this yourselves at home.
