Has anyone ever tried straight pumpkin juice? I wouldn’t scull it, but when you make this recipe, have a sip before you start adding the other ingredients. You might be surprised.

Harry Potter; Pumpkin Juice
Ingredients
Units Scale
- half a butternut pumpkin
- 2 cups apple juice
- and 1/2 cup pineapple juice.
- 1 tsp of honey
- a sprinkling of pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Start by scooping the seeds out of half a butternut pumpkin (my preferred choice here), chopping it into chunks and steaming it, until soft and mushy straight through.
- Scoop the pumpkin off the skin.
- –Version 1
- Scoop the pumpkin onto cheesecloth. Don’t blend the pumpkin beforehand, as I find the ‘mush’ goes straight through the cloth, and defeats the purpose of straining. Squeeze until all the juice is in the bowl, and you’re left with a handful of pumpkin mush.
- –Version 2
- Put it through a juicer
- In a pitcher, mix together
- the pumpkin juice
- cups apple juice
- and 1/2 cup pineapple juice.
- Stir in a tsp of honey and a sprinkling of pumpkin pie spice.
- Stir well, chill and serve.

I have never thought to drink pumpkin juice…how interesting. Next time I buy a pumpkin, I’ll give this recipe a go.
Pumpkin juice eh? Intriiiiguing. Plus, pumpkin pie later can only be a good thing.
I’m wondering if this year will bring any Halloween kiddies to our place. Perhaps I should buy some preemptive chocolate just in case. Then lock the door and turn out the lights.
