For the pumpkin spice syrup
Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat. Add the pumpkin puree and the spice and stir until everything is dissolved. Do not boil. Remove from heat. Let cool for about 20 minutes.
Strain through a fine mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth to remove the sediment.
