Pumpkins’ main claim to fame may be jack-o’-lanterns, but don’t be too quick to count them out for grown-up crafts. Enter: the pumpkin cooler. Impress guests at a fall soiree with this fun(ctional) idea.
Ingredients:
- 1 pumpkin (white or orange)
- Kitchen carving knife
- Serrated scooper (preferably metal)
- Ice
- Cinnamon
- Fall-inspired spirits
Directions:
- Cut a large circle around the upper quarter of the pumpkin.
- Remove the top and thoroughly scoop out the contents. Hold on to them if you’re pie-savvy.
- Fill with ice until there’s about 1 to 2 inches of pumpkin left.
- Sprinkle the rim of the pumpkin with cinnamon.
- Add seasonal beverages. Celebrate immediately.
