Ingredients
Pumpkin Juice Ingredients
- 4 liters apple cider (or apple juice)
- 15 ounces pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large pitcher, combine the apple cider, pumpkin puree, sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract. Stir thoroughly until all the ingredients are well mixed and the sugars are dissolved.
- Chill and Serve: Pour the mixed juice over ice in individual glasses. Optionally, garnish with cinnamon sticks and apple slices to enhance the flavor and presentation.
- Stir Before Serving: Before each serving, stir the pumpkin juice again to prevent the pumpkin puree and spices from settling at the bottom, ensuring a consistent taste throughout.
Notes
- Use apple cider for a more authentic autumnal flavor, but apple juice works as a substitute.
- Adjust sugar levels to taste if you prefer a less sweet or sweeter beverage.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of ground cloves or nutmeg along with the pumpkin pie spice.
- Serve chilled for the best flavor experience.
- Can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
