Fuel Friday #7: Pumpkin Party Punch

Short entry today, but I promise it is worth it.

Every delicious Halloween party needs a punch! I’m providing you a slice of science mixed with some fresh fall flavors and classic mixings for punch worth having again and again! It is sweet, tangy, and smooth.

My favorite part about making this punch is by serving it in a REAL PUMPKIN! Find your favorite fun pumpkin (I get those short/flat fairy tale pumpkins), hollow it out and serve inside!

Pumpkin Punch

  • ½ cup canned pumpkin (do not get the pumpkin pie mix)
  • 1 cup apple cider (you could use hard fizzy cider too)
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • ½ cup golden rum
  • ½ cup citrus vodka
  • Sparkling wine to taste

Garnishes:

  • Apple slices with cloves stuck in them
  • Cinnamon sticks
  • Star Anise

Assembly:

  • Blend pumpkin, cider, orange juice, and pineapple juice together.
  • Add rum and vodka, blend once more.
  • Put your garnishes in the bottom of the pumpkin or serving bowl.
  • Add liquid, leaving room for the bubbly.
  • Add bubbly and mix gently.
  • Enjoy!
