Pumpkin Pie-tini (Hungry Girl style, of course!)



I will admit when I first stumbled upon the recipe from Hungry Girl's Happy Hour book for a Pumpkin Pie-tini, my first thought was "Ew, gross." I am NOT a huge pumpkin fan, I like it alright, but well, chocolate is my first love, so pretty much anything without chocolate I can either take it or leave it! However, in the spirit of the season I decided to make a big batch of Pumpkin Pie-tini's to take to our annual Friendsgiving dinner that my girlfriends and I celebrate together every November before Thanksgiving. They were DELICIOUS! They taste just like pumpkin pie! And they were SO easy to make! The best part...only 144 calories per serving! Ingredients: 4 - ounces light vanilla soymilk (refrigerated by milk) 1-1/2 - ounces vanilla vodka (I actually used Whipped Cream Vodka instead) 1 - ounce sugar-free calorie-free vanilla flavored syrup (the kind you use in coffee) 2 - tablespoons canned pure pumpkin 1/4 - teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (found in the spice section of your supermarket) Directions: Combine all ingredients in a glass and stir until smooth. Transfer to a shaker filled with ice. Shake thoroughly and then strain into a large martini glass. Enjoy! Makes 1 serving Per Serving (entire recipe, 1 martini): 144 calories, 1g fat, 65mg sodium, 6.5g carbs, 1.25g fiber, 3.5g sugars, 3g protein.
