Ingredients

1 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup 100% pure pumpkin puree
½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice*

Instructions

Whisk together water, sugar, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin pie spice in a medium saucepan.
Set saucepan on the stove over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 3 minutes, or until the sugar is fully dissolved and becomes a syrup-like consistency.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve.
Let syrup cool. Use in cocktails, coffee drinks, on top of pancakes, or in desserts. Store syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 1 week.

Notes

You don't have to strain the syrup, but it does make it a lot smoother.
*If you don't have pre-made pumpkin pie spice, combine 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, ¾ teaspoon ground ginger, ¾ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground allspice, and ½ teaspoon ground cloves. Use only ½ teaspoon for this recipe and reserve the rest for later.
