Use a black marker to paint a jack-o-lantern face on the front, you'll need this pumpkin whole! INGREDIENTS 1 hollowed and well cleaned pumpkin 2 oranges Whole cloves 6 cups apple juice 1 cinnamon stick 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/4 cup honey 3 tablespoons lemon juice 2 1/4 cups pineapple juice DIRECTIONS 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Stud the whole oranges with cloves, spacing them about two inches apart and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven. 2 In a large saucepan, combine the apple juice and cinnamon stick; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the nutmeg, honey, lemon juice and pineapple juice. 3 Serve hot in a punch bowl with the 2 clove-studded baked oranges floating on top. To serve in the hollow pumpkin, you may want to cool it first so it doesn't cook the inside of the pumpkin.
