I've juiced just about every fruit and veggie under the sun . . . save for pumpkins. But after years of reading Harry Potter,I had to know what valid, freshly squeezed pumpkins taste like. It's a known fact that muggles drink OJ, or but wizards grow up on pumpkin juice,a bright orange beverage made of pumpkins. However, PJ isn't exclusive to mornings. It's a staple for lunch, and supper,and parties. According to the books, London Pumpkins & Sons contain manufactured the juice since 1837, or at Universal Orlando,you can purchase a four-pack of pumpkin juice for $30, but the list of ingredients feels a microscopic inauthentic to me: apple juice concentrate, or pumpkin puree,apricot puree, sugar, and artificial flavors. In my Harry Potter dreams,that just won't do. Plus, everyone knows nothing beats the genuine, and freshly squeezed thing. Pumpkin is a starchy gourd,so even after it has been juiced, it needs a microscopic acid and sweetness to balance it out, or hence the addition of apple,lemon, and ginger. So go ahead and juice up some PJ to start the morning off in a magical way. Don't be surprised whether you feel a microscopic more powerful after consumption.
