    Pumpkin Juice

    This pumpkin juice is the ultimate Halloween treat. It's spooky, sweet, and easy to make. And it's vegan friendly too!

    Pumpkin Juice

    There’s more to pumpkin juice than just breaking into a haunted pumpkin patch, fending off the zombies, and juicing a pumpkin.

    This Harry Potter-inspired version simmers spices, fresh ginger and vanilla bean – with apple juice to infuse it.

    Then it’s blended with soaked dried apricots, pumpkin purée and a little nutmeg. It’s sweetened only with dried apricots!

    This recipe comes from The Ghoulish Gourmet: A Bewitching Collection of Vegan Halloween Recipes by Kathy Hester © 2016. Reprinted with permission.

    Ingredients

    • 10 dried apricots
    • 1½ cups water
    • 2 cups apple juice
    • 1 cinnamon stick
    • 7 whole allspice berries

    Instructions

    • Soak the apricots in the water for at least 4 hours or overnight in the fridge.
    • Add the apple juice, cinnamon stick, allspice, ginger and vanilla bean to a saucepan. Bring almost to boil, then turn heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Take off heat and let it cool a bit.
    • Add the apricots and the soaking water to a blender and blend until smooth.
    • Add the pumpkin purée and nutmeg and blend again.
    • Strain the apple juice mixture into the blender to make sure only the liquid comes through. Blend until smooth.
    • Put a fine mesh strainer over a pitcher and strain the pulp so that only the thick juice drips into the pitcher. Sprinkle with ground nutmeg before serving.
