- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
Instructions
- In a saucepan over medium heat, stir together sugars and water until the sugar has dissolved. Don't let it boil.
- Stir in pumpkin purée and vanilla extract until combined. Stir in the spices.

Notes
Syrup shortcut: Use 1 tablespoon of a pre-made pumpkin pie spice blend instead of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and cardamom.
Storage: Store this pumpkin spice syrup in the fridge in a food-safe, airtight container (such as a mason jar). Use within 2 weeks, since fresh pumpkin and spices shorten its shelf life.
