Sparkling Pumpkin Pie Mocktail


Packed with Fall flavors; this Pumpkin Pie Mocktail is delicious yet easy to make. Plus it needs only FIVE ingredients and under 5 minutes to bring together! 


Fall is going strong and we are looking forward to all the Holidays that are coming up! When it comes to celebrating Fall, the FIRST thing that comes to everyone's mind is Pumpkin. While making main dishes, desserts and appetizers using pumpkin is pretty easy, drinks is where I struggled not long ago.

Every year I would think I could whip up some pumpkin drinks; but never went beyond pumpkin smoothie or pumpkin soda. This year I started preparing for Fall a few months ago and made a superb Simple Syrup using Pumpkin. That is when I realized the potential of using pumpkin in beverages; both alcoholic and non alcoholic.


Plus I started writing for Target Made Me Do It, and my theme was Fall inspired drinks. So I quickly whipped up an awesome Peach and Pumpkin drink using a lot of ingredients from Target. 

This drink has quickly become a favorite recipe among us and our friends. I made this drink for a party and each of the guest wanted to know the recipe! It is not very often that people like recipes made from Pumpkin, but this was clearly different. 


The reason I would think this happened is because the distinct taste of Pumpkin did not overpower the taste of other ingredients in this drink. It was well balanced with everything else and turned out amazing! 

Here is a little interesting variation I used in this recipe: This drink does not use ice cubes. Instead of that I used frozen peach slices to cool the drink. As we sip the drink, the peaches thaw and make the drink cool. This works really well when you do not want your drink diluting quickly. 


Still wondering how to make the drink? Head straight to Target Made Me Do It and read it all: Sparkling Pumpkin Pie Mocktail.

Brazilian Tapioca Pancakes for #BreadBakers

Inspired by Brazilian Tapioca Pancakes; this TWO ingredient pancake from scratch is the breakfast recipe you have been looking for! It is Valentines Day tomorrow and today we are showcasing our Pancake skills for #BreadBakers! Our lovely hostess Wendy from A Day in the Life on the Farm  came up with the theme and I LOVED it. I was thinking of making something RED, given it is time to celebrate LOVE! A couple of years ago I posted  Red Velvet Aebleskiver Pancakes  for Valentines Day and I did not want to repeat something similar. So I opted for something that is different yet PERFECT for V-day; Brazilian Tapioca Pancakes.  These pancakes are traditionally made from tapioca flour and water. However, I had a BIG packet of mini tapioca in my pantry and tried these pancakes using them. The result was so pretty that I started making these with mini tapioca all the time.  Coincidentally this year Valentines Day falls on an Indian festival day; Mahashivratri. Celebrated...

Rice Flour Idiyappam | String Hoppers

Homemade hand pressed rice noodles that requires just 4 ingredients. Perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Psst, this one is vegan and gluten-free too. Breakfast is undoubtedly the MOST important meal of the day. On weekdays it is generally a quick affair, juggling between poha, upma, egg preparations and some pancakes. However, on weekends I like to make something more interesting and filling.  For weekends I try out some recipes from cuisines that I am not very familiar with. It is not only fun but also gives me time to make something else for lunch if I mess up the new recipe! A few weekends ago I made these string hoppers, back in 2016. But it is only now that I am finally drafting this recipe while I am visiting Boston with my husband for his business trip. I am lazing round in the hotel and eating out EVERYDAY. Amidst all that, I am really craving this yummy breakfast today. And when I think of the warm  Kerala style   Vegetable Stew  that I made wi...
