Ingredients
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
½ tsp vanilla extract
2 ½ cups apple cider or apple juice
1 cup water (or more to taste, depending on desired sweetness)
½ cup pumpkin puree
Honey or maple syrup to taste (optional, as apple juice can provide enough sweetness on its own)
Instructions
Blend the Ingredients:
Combine all ingredients in a blender and pulse to combine until smooth.
Simmer:
Pour the mixture into a pot and simmer for 5 minutes to allow the spices to infuse and enhance the flavor.
Serve:
Enjoy warm straight from the pot or chill it for a refreshing cold drink.
Store:
Store any leftovers in an airtight jar or container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Shake or stir well before serving, as the pumpkin will settle over time.
Notes
Sweetener: The apple juice or cider often provides enough sweetness, but if you prefer a sweeter drink, feel free to add honey or maple syrup.
Customization: You can adjust the amount of water depending on how strong or mild you want the flavor to be. More water will make it less sweet and lighter in flavor.
Serving Tip: This drink can be served hot in the fall or chilled for a refreshing treat during warmer months.
