Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice
In place of the Weekly Libations, might I recommend you try a drink made with Hiram Walker’s Pumpkin Spice liqueur before the end of pumpkin season? I had one on Halloween and it was fantastic!
The bar I went to had a ton of pumpkin-oriented concoctions on the menu from “Pumpkin ‘Ritas” to “Yummy Pumpkin Pie.”
My friend ordered the “Black Cat,” a mixture of Pumpkin Spice, kahlua, cream, and vanilla vodka. It was downright amazing.
I went with the Yummy Pumpkin Pie, which is the same exact thing except it has butterscotch liqueur in there as well.
Or if you’re not one for the alcoholic beverages, you can still enjoy pumpkin in liquid form:
Pumpkin Shake
Pumpkin Pie Smoothie
Pumpkin Smoothies
Enjoy!

Posted by Bigbelly at November 3rd, 2007, 10:12 pmI will have to be on lookout for this at our local LB!! It sounds very intriguing!

Bigbelly - The bar was in Northbrook, and it’s called Hanson Brothers Inn :) It’s a smaller place but if you’re ever in the suburbs, the pumpkin drinks are tasty!
Valli - You should definitely try and find it! Thanks for the comment.
Posted by Hillary at November 5th, 2007, 11:59 amI’ve never made a pumpkin bread mix because I use my mom’s recipe, which is the best! (Do you detect any bias here?) But I do admit that my favorite pancakes are made from Bisquick. I buy the heart healthy one so I don’t feel so guilty. But, they just come so darned fluffy each time I make them, I can’t resist.

Posted by Tartelette at November 7th, 2007, 9:49 pmAny way to get that recipe?
Posted by Mon at November 12th, 2007, 9:43 amTartelette - Good point! I never would have though to COOK with it! Genius.
Mon - If I visit the bar again, I’ll ask for the ratios of ingredients. But in the meantime, I know it had kahlua, cream, Hiram Walker’s Pumpkin Spice liqueur, and vanilla vodka.

Posted by gilli at November 12th, 2007, 12:10 pmDown herfe at the bottom of the world (almost) pumpkin is mainly used as a vegetable so I am struggling with this but always willing to try something new.
Cheers
