Not only Harry Potter fans should treat themselves to a glass of pumpkin juice more often - the bright orange drink has many health benefits and is conjured up in no time at all.

If you harvest the squash yourself, make sure it is ripe.

You need the following ingredients for four glasses of pumpkin juice:

• 250 grams butternut or Hokkaido squash

• 400 milliliters of water

• 100 milliliters of orange juice

• 50 milliliters of apple juice

• Grated Ginger

• honey

To prepare, halve the pumpkin (carefully!) lengthwise and scrape out the seeds and fibers with a large spoon.

Then peel the pumpkin halves, roughly dice the flesh and place in a large pot with the water.

Hokkaido squash does not need to be peeled.

Add the apple and orange juice, a tablespoon of honey and some grated ginger.

Stir with a wooden spoon and cook at medium temperature for about ten minutes until the pumpkin pieces are nice and soft.

Allow to cool briefly and finely puree the pumpkin mixture with a fork, allow to cool further.

Pour the finished pumpkin juice into a bottle or glasses and serve well chilled.
