While pumpkin spice lattes are all the rage during autumnal mornings, these White Russian cocktails themed after the pumpkin beverage are perfect to recreate in the evening. These milky cocktails are filled with all the same spices and flavors found in the latte along with the addition of bold Kahlua to kick the drink up a notch.
Fans of the fall hot drink can recreate its distinct flavors with this delicious White Russian recipe by She Knows. This festive fall cocktail calls for Kahlua to recreate the espresso flavor of the latte added to vodka and a cup of milk. The drink is further infused with pumpkin puree and spices to give the drink its orange hue. The drink can be garnished with more pumpkin spice and served in a cane sugar-rimmed glass.
