Created by Brian Miller of New York hotspot Death & Co, I thought this would be a great drink to welcome October (Rocktober for you a Rock ‘n Rollers) and begin the build up to Halloween. Death & Co, will also be well represented at this weekend’s Manhattan Cocktail Classic.

Enjoy Brian’s scary Halloween take on the classic fizz.

Sleepy Hollow Fizz

1 1/2 oz. Flor de Caña 7yr old rum
1/2 oz. El Dorado 151 proof demerara rum
1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice
1/2 oz. maple syrup
2 barspoon pumpkin puree
1 egg yolk
Top club soda

Dry shake, shake with 3 ice cubes and strain into a fizz glass -no garnish

Pumpkin Puree
Take one 15 oz can of Libby’s 100% pure pumpkin, add 1 tsp of ground cinnamon, 1/2 tsp of ground ginger, 1/4 tsp of ground cloves and 15 oz of simple syrup and blend it all together in a blender or Cuisinart. Store in the fridge.
