Pumpkin Smoothie

Are you tired of making pumpkin pie from those pumpkins? Instead, try making an altogether different concoction. This mild but sweet beverage will give you another reason to love the Halloween season.

Ingredients

sugar pumpkin
milk or cream
apple cider
sugar
cinammon
nutmeg
vanilla extract
apple slices
banana slices
chocolate syrup
rum

Preparation

Cut the top off of the pumpkin.
Scoop out all the seeds.
Cut off the orange outer skin.
Cut the remaining shell into cubes.
Boil the cubes until they’re soft.
Throw them into the blender with milk, apple cider, and other spices and ingredients to taste.
Pour yourself a cup, curl up next to your fireplace (or at least a fireplace screensaver) and enjoy!

Tips

Drink it hot or cool, topped with whipped cream.
Mix it with coffee for some pumpkin spice caffeine.
Throw in just a splash of rum to pack a punch.
