It's been a long time since I've made it to the #SundaySupper table. I figured it was fitting that I dip my toe back into the pool with a pumpkin event! Here we go with a ton of simple pumpkin recipes.

Pumpkin Shrub
I have a healthy obsession with shrubs. Not something you find in the garden! Shrubs are also called drinking vinegars and can be the basis of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic libations. I've made lots of different summer shrubs with berries and stone fruit, so I decided to play with a pumpkin version. And, it turns out, it's like autumn in a glass!
The best part about shrubs is that it is a very
simple process. It's just a matter of mixing the ingredients
together and waiting for the flavors to infuse. I started this week's recipe thinking that I would roast a whole pumpkin to make my puree.
Ingredients
Then I remembered that the theme was simple pumpkin recipes. And there's nothing more simple than using pre-made pumpkin puree!
Ingredients
- one 15-ounce can of pumpkin puree
- 3 C organic granulated sugar
- 3 C apple cider vinegar
- 1" to 1-1/2" knob fresh ginger
- 1 T ground cinnamon
- 2 t ground cardamom
- 1 t ground all-spice
Procedure
Grate fresh ginger and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all ingredients, including the fresh ginger. Pour into quart jars with lids and refrigerate for, at least, 2 days.
I made two different drinks with this pumpkin shrub.
Sparkling Pumpkin Sipper (non-alcoholic): equal parts shrub and sparkling water.
Spiced Pumpkin Rum Sipper (alcoholic): equal parts shrub and rum. Top with sparkling water. Garnish with edible blossoms; I used organic chamomile.

I love the sound of these drinks. I've always wanted to try shrubs and now here is the perfect way!
ReplyDeleteWe are having unseasonably hot weather here in MI. Either of these drinks will be perfect poolside.
ReplyDeleteI've only had sips of a cocktail with a rhubarb shrub. Your pumpkin shrub and cocktails sound terrific!
ReplyDeleteI have really got to try making a shrub. I've never tasted them and I love anything with a vinegar tang. This looks like a good one to start with.
ReplyDeleteThis is by far the most unique recipe today and I love it! Perfect for all kinds of fall beverages.
