Thanksgiving Pizza
RECIPE
For the Pizza Dough
It can also be made using store-bought pizza dough, or most pizza shops are happy to sell you dough that is ready to roll, top, and cook it you ask them! Rolling the dough out thin and grilling the dough (on the grill or in a grill pan) makes for a lighter, crispier pizza! But for this recipe, we will be using French Bread for a hot, hearty, crispy treat.

Tips & Tricks:
If making for a small group separate your egg whites and put them in a squeeze bottle or maple syrup dispenser. This will save you the time of cracking them in-between drinks. Also if you don’t want to turn your arms into noodles throughout the night hit the cocktail with a Stick blender or handheld milk frother to make short work of integrating the egg white and skipping the dry shake all together.
The combination of JMCB and the Bourbon have all the flavor they need hold their own against the rich, sweet, salty, and umami flavors of the flatbread, with the pumpkin butter tying the knot of flavors between the dish and the drink. The mouthfeel of this cocktail is amazing, helping it really roll around the palate and coat your mouth between bites. The acidity of the lemon then cuts through the rich ricotta flavors lingering between bites giving you a little relief while making you want to go back for more.
