Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Eat Your Books

    Can substitute apple pie spice for pumpkin pie spice and Angostura bitters for orange bitters.

    Delicious but very strong. It has a nice caramelly flavor.

    This was a wonderful fall cocktail. Even people who said they didn’t like bourbon loved it. I used less bourbon than she listed - 2 ounces per cocktail.

    I made a big pitcher of this for a dinner party last night and we all enjoyed it. I’ll definitely make this again. We used Larceny 1870 whiskey, orange bitters, and unfiltered cider.

    I do not love pumpkin pie spice, nor the cloudy aspect of ground spices in cocktails (or pickle brine), so we made ours without. It’s still a wonderful lightly sweet drink that goes down very easily — the orange bitters rounds everything out very nicely. For Thanksgiving I may add some cloves, dried ginger, and a cinnamon stick to a bottle of bourbon a few weeks before the holiday and finish the cocktails with a grating of nutmeg.
