Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martinis
The espresso martini of the season🎃 it’s so easy to add a pumpkin flavor to the classic espresso martini- I added a couple drops of Pumpkin spice extract, some shakes of pumpkin spice, and instead of simple syrup I used a little maple syrup to bring out the Fall flavor!🍁🍂
Equipment
