Add all ingredients to a rocks glass filled with ice or one large cube. Stir until chilled, sip and enjoy! You are now the King in the North (or at least you feel like one)! Marco says add some cherries and sit back and enjoy this drink as it warms you up on a chilly evening.

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.

Today's episode Marco and Ali enjoy a Crusta and they talk about Dirty Food Done Real Cheap.

Kvas Peach Crusta

Here we go our first Crusta and it tastes better then it sounds. Thanks to Zack and Amy for this awesome recipe. This is the type of recipe I can get behind as it is equal parts each item (thought I would use a full ounce.)

Ingredients:

- 3/4 oz. Kvas Ginger Wildflower Simple Syrup

- 3/4 oz. Peach Schnapps

- 3/4 oz. Vodka

- 3/4 oz. Lemon Juice

- Fresh Grated Cinnamon

Making the Crusta:

Rub the outer inch of champagne flute with the open half of a slice of lemon. Shake 1/2-cup white sugar out on a plate and roll the "orange-rubbed" part of the champagne flute in the sugar so that the sugar sticks to the glass.

Making the Cocktail:

Add all ingredients to a shaker Shake until chilled and strain cocktail into the narrow top of the flute.

Add one ice cube to each flute, and strain in cocktail. Take a fine-grader and grate a cinnamon stick over top of the cocktail.

Today's episode Marco and Ali hang on to summer as best they can through food and drink.

TEQUILA SUNRISE:

If you are a fan of The Rolling Stones or The Eagles, then you best try this classic cocktail.

In a highball glass filled with ice cubes the more cubes the better.
Pour the tequila and orange juice.
You decide if you want to stir it, technically this drink doesn't need anything stirred.
Slowly pour the grenadine in, the grenadine will gradually sink and mix with the other ingredients, creating a lovely sunrise effect..
Garnish with an orange slice and cherry, we soaked ours in Amaretto because it's summer and why the hell not!

PEACHES!
