In a cocktail shaker, combine the vanilla vodka, aged rum, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, half-and-half, pumpkin pie spice, and a handful of ice cubes.
Shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds to ensure the ingredients are well blended and chilled.
Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass.
Top with a dollop of frozen whipped cream if desired.
Sprinkle a light dusting of pumpkin pie spice over the top for garnish and serve immediately.
Pro Tips:
- If the pumpkin puree is too thick, whisk it with the half-and-half before adding it to the shaker to ensure a smooth consistency.
- For a vegan option, substitute the half-and-half with coconut or almond milk.
- For an added touch, lightly rim the martini glass with crushed graham crackers or cinnamon sugar before pouring.
