14 Pumpkin Drinks That Are Better Than a PSL

We're pumpkin-obsessed around these parts, and it turns out that all of you are too! We treasure hunted on the web to find the most enticing pumpkin cocktails, smoothies, and hot drinks, and think we may have found a few that we'd prefer over the infamous PSL (Pumpkin Spice Latte) that this country seems to know and love so well. Bottoms up!

Caipirinha

First up, a caipirinha! This recipe features fall flavors like ginger and nutmeg to create a cozy cocktail. And, since pumpkin is sweet on its own, no refined sugar or juices are needed to sweeten things up – just a touch of agave nectar! (via Fit Sugar)

Spiced Bourbon Punch

This bourbon-powered drink combines lemon, honey, ginger, and pumpkin purée and is designed to totally knock you out ;) (via Domesticate Me)

Cider Beertail

No idea what to do with that flavored beer you bought two weeks ago? Turn it into something more sparkly with help from cider, cinnamon, and lemon. (via Brit + Co.)

(Wild) Turkey and Sage

This would be an amazing cocktail to kick off a Thanksgiving feast. Love the combo of savory and sweet. (via Serious Eats)

The Ultimate Pumpkin Spice Smoothie

Not only does this smoothie taste ridiculously delicious but it's dairy-free which makes it pretty darn guilt-free, too! (via Brit + Co.)

Mojito

We love a throwback to summer, especially on an unseasonably warm day here in SF. To create a fall-inspired mojito, use brown sugar instead of white, and add in pumpkin puree! (via Yum Sugar)

Spiced Hazelnut Coffee

This one is sort of like a PSL that is both spiked and nutty, and we're into it. (via Poet in the Pantry)

Chocolate Gingerbread Martini

Okay, this is one of those recipes where we read the title and immediately pass out. I mean, crunchy cookies, chocolate, coffee, ginger, and cream? What. (via The Blond Cook)

Pumpkintini

For this trick, we turned the flavors of a PSL into a martini! So yummy. (via Brit + Co.)

Spiced Pumpkin Cider

We do love us a warm cider, especially a luscious one like this. The pumpkin puree adds a thickness that is just perfect for fall. (via She Knows)

Pumpkin Chai Latte

Take your regular cup of chai up a level by adding pumpkin pie spice, pumpkin, and maple syrup. Nom. (via Texanerin)

Pumpkin Pie White Hot Chocolate

Ever tried white hot chocolate? It's a fun alternative to the regular cocoa move, and stirring in pumpkin really kicks things up. (via Macaroni and Cheesecake)

Death by Pumpkin

Are you ready for THREE types of pumpkin in one dangerous drink? We've got pumpkin puree, spice liqueur, and ice cream. (via Hungry Couple)

Healthy Smoothie

And last, a healthy option! Not only will this smoothie add fiber to your day, but the pumpkin helps keep you fuller longer. (via Healthful Pursuit)
