Whether on the Hogwarts Express or at the Great Hall, you can count on Harry, Ron, and Hermonie drinking pumpkin juice. With pumpkin season just around the corner, it is only appropriate to share this recipe for this sweet and spicy beverage. To juice the pumpkin, I recommend using a juicer instead of the cheesecloth method. It is faster and easier. You can also use pumpkin puree but the drink will be thicker. I like to make this drink before I start a Harry Potter movie marathon.
