Pumpkin Cider

This is the perfect time for a warm mug of pumpkin cider as you snuggle up on a cold winter day or you can drink it cold if you prefer. I found a bunch of beautiful winter squashes at our local farmer's market last week. So I thought it would be the perfect time to share this recipe with you.

Now, here's the recipe!

Ingredients:
Please buy organic ingredients whenever possible, for you and the planet!

• 1/2 small pumpkin (1.5 lb/680 gm), peeled and seeded
• 2 apples (14 oz/400 gm), stems removed, quartered
• 1 inch (.26 oz/ 7 gm) fresh ginger or 1 tablespoon ginger juice (see video below for making ginger juice)
