Pumpkin Rum Punch

Tis the season for fall concoctions and what better than a pumpkin cocktail.

Pumpkin Rum Punch:
1 cup brown sugar
5 cups hot water
pinch of nutmeg
a couple of cinamon sticks
1 can of 100% pure pumpkin
8 oz of spiced rum

Combine brown sugar, water, nutmeg and cinamon sticks, stir until dissolved, then let punch cool. After this mixture has cooled sufficiently you will notice that there is a bunch of pumpkin pulp in the bottom of your container, we will leave this behind. Next you will ladle out the mixture into a new container (preferably a store and pour container), being sure to leave the pulp behind.  At this point you have made the base for the cocktail.

You now have two options:

1. Add the spiced rum to this base and put back into refrigerator and have your punch ready to serve.
2. Serve cocktails individually to order
1. Add 1 oz of spiced rum to an old fashioned glass with ice.
2. Fill with pumpkin base mixture.
3. Garnish with a stick of cinamon.

Cheers!
