Non-Alcoholic Pumping Pumpkin Cocktail

Made by Dacia. Original recipe found here.

Ingredients:
  • 1 ½ cup of prepared "Welch's Orange Pineapple Apple" juice (if your local grocery does not carry this particular flavor, regular pineapple juice with a splash of apple juice works great too) **I actually mixed orange, apple & pineapple with equal parts to make this because I couldn't find it in the store today.

Directions:

Simply pour the pina colada into a cocktail glass; then add the pumpkin puree. With a spoon, mix until the two are combined and smooth. Then add the juice to the mixture and stir. Lastly, add a few cubes of ice and serve.
