Ingredients
- 1.5 cups water
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 6 cinnamon sticks
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- ¼ cup pumpkin puree
Instructions
- Combine the water and sugar in a heavy bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved into the water completely.
- Add the spices and pumpkin puree, whisking to incorporate everything. Allow everything to simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and allow the syrup to cool completely.
- Strain the syrup into an airtight container. Discard the spices and any leftover pumpkin puree.
- Store the syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
- I found that using a fine mesh strainer that's lined with a paper towel (or coffee filter) is helpful for getting all of the pumpkin puree solids out of the syrup.
- Add about half an ounce of plain vodka to the syrup if you want to extend its shelf life a bit.
