Juice the pumpkin pieces by squeezing through a cheesecloth or using a juicer if you have one. Pour the pumpkin juice, apple juice and pineapple juice into a blender. Add the honey (we recommend you start with one teaspoon, as you can add some later! to the juices and blend thoroughly. Add your spices (to taste). This might take some experimentation to get right.
