Pumpkin Butter. Prissy’s Pumpkin Butter uses a time-honored Southern recipe. What you don’t use in the cocktails goes great on toast, muffins, biscuits and turkey sandwiches.	Simple Syrup. This 100% pure cane sugar syrup from Monin is also kosher-certified. Click here for more information or to purchase.	Apple Chips. Read our review of Apple Crackle. Serving bowls of this healthy, low calorie apple snack with the Pumpkin Divine cocktails is a good idea.
