Eat & Drink with Ali Hassan & Marco Timpano

Eat & Drink with Ali Hassan & Marco Timpano

Comedians Ali Hassan & Marco Timpano, discuss, lament & come to terms with Food & Drink. They bring over a quarter century of restaurant experience to the podcast table.

Today's episode Marco and Ali celebrate their fickle fall friend, The Squash!

Pumpkin Pie Martini

The drink will hit you like a goblin searching for a home. It is a strong drink and a great alternative to the often maligned pumpkin pie. Drink this and eat Apple pie could be your fall solution. It is a pain in the ass to prepare but well worth it especially if you want to impress your guests.

Here is the real pain in the ass part but it does impress once executed: Smash up graham crackers, cinnamon, and sugar. Wet the rim of a glass with 1 oz. maple syrup, and dip it into your cinnamon, sugar, and cracker mixture. 

Combine 2 oz. Deep Eddy Original Vodka, 

1 oz. Dark rum, 

1 oz. half-and-half, 

1 oz of Maple Syrup **do not forget this like Marco did as it will be Very Squash-forward

2 tbsp. canned pumpkin puree, 

¼ tsp. pumpkin pie spice, 

and ¼ tsp. vanilla extract into your cocktail shaker, and shake for 30-45 seconds. 

Pour and strain into your rimmed martini glass, and garnish with a little grated nutmeg and cinnamon stick.
