Here's How You Can Make Pumpkin Juice At Home | Pumpkin Juice Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 white pumpkin (petha or ash gourd)
- Water
- Lemon juice
- Salt (to taste)
Instructions:
- Peel the white pumpkin and chop it into small pieces.
- Transfer the pieces into a long metal container and add water on top.
- Use a hand blender to mix the ash gourd with water until well combined.
- Strain the resulting liquid to get a clear juice.
- Add lemon juice and salt to taste. Stir well and serve.
Tips to Make the Perfect Pumpkin Juice
- For juicing, select small, sweet varieties such as sugar pie, white pumpkin, or Hokkaido pumpkin. These have more flavour and less fibre than large carving pumpkins.
- Boost the flavour and natural sweetness with other fruits. Green apples add a tart balance, while a small amount of pineapple or pear juice complements the pumpkin.
- For an autumnal drink, use classic pumpkin pie spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of ground clove to elevate the flavour.
- Raw pumpkin juice is best consumed fresh to maximise its nutritional value. The juice can be stored in the fridge for up to 48 hours.
- Do not discard the solids after juicing. They are full of fibre and flavour and can be repurposed into soup stock, added to baked goods, or mixed into smoothies.
