Pumpkin Juice is the perfect FALL beverage!  This is a great beverage to serve at a Fall party or even at your Thanksgiving dinner!  Your chefs will love whipping this juice up in the blender.  We like to serve it chilled over ice, but many chefs like it warmed.  Give it a try and let us know if you like it served cold or warm.
