Measuring Cups and Spoons: Accurate measurements can make a difference.

Ingredients

Gathering the right ingredients is key to achieving that perfect fall flavor. Here’s what I use:

2 cups of apple cider
1/2 cup of pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice
Juice of 1 orange
Cinnamon sticks for garnish
Pumpkin rim sugar optional

These ingredients capture the autumn flavors beautifully. If you want to add a zing, sometimes I add a splash of ginger ale.

Instructions

Let’s get creative in the kitchen! Follow these steps to whip up the mocktail:

In a shaker, add the apple cider, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and orange juice.
Shake well until everything blends smoothly.
Fill glasses with ice if desired and pour the mixture into the glass.

Garnish with a cinnamon stick and sprinkle a bit of pumpkin rim sugar.

Feel free to adjust the spice levels to match your taste. Give it a little taste test and tweak as necessary. 🥤

Notes

I prefer to use fresh apple cider when possible for the best flavor.
Adjust the pumpkin pie spice to suit your taste preferences. Some like it spicier!
For a sugary rim, dip the glass in water or orange juice, then into sugar mixed with a dash of pumpkin pie spice.
