"The standard Headless Horseman recipe brings together bourbon and pumpkin butter to make a silky drink. It may sound a bit strange, but pumpkin butter is actually a secret ingredient for easy fall drinks. With just a spoonful, it adds a creamy texture, a bit of sweetness, and a healthy dose of those pumpkin spices - and in no place is it on better display than in the Headless Horseman cocktail."

The Headless Horseman combines bourbon, pumpkin butter, egg white, lemon juice, triple sec, and ice to create a silky, frothy cocktail. Pumpkin butter contributes creamy texture, sweetness, and warm pumpkin spices that deepen flavor and aroma.

The pumpkin butter differentiates the drink from a classic whiskey sour by adding creamy smoothness, delicate depth, and autumnal aroma. Garnishing with additional pumpkin spice on top enhances seasonal character and intensifies warm fall flavors.
