Caribbean Pumpkin Punch with Pumpkin on side

In the Caribbean, we love to punch! From Peanut Punch to Sea Moss Punch, throw it in a blender with some coconut milk, and we are happy. This recipe for Caribbean Pumpkin Punch is spicy and creamy with a bit of kick. That kick comes from our locally brewed McKesson Stout, which allegedly helps the male libido. (If McKesson is not available in your region, you can substitute with Guinness). Regardless of the myth, this punch has a sweet, spicy, creamy, roasted malt and Pumpkin flavor for all adults to enjoy.

1 Liter Coconut Milk

Pumpkin Puree

Remove and discard the skin, scoop out the seeds from the pumpkin, cut them into chunks, and then place them into a steam basket.

Using a saucepan, fill ⅓ the way with water, bring to a boil, and place the basket with the pumpkin into the pot cover and steam for 10-15 minutes or until the pumpkin is fork-tender.

Remove the pumpkin from the pan and let cool before mashing with a fork or potato masher.

Serve chilled or over ice.
