[Weasley twins]…disappeared for a couple of hours and returned with armfuls of bottles of butterbeer, pumpkin fizz, and several bags full of Honeydukes sweets.”
Prisoner of Azkaban – Chapter 13
There has been some debate among Harry Potter fans on whether Pumpkin Fizz is a drink or perhaps a candy. At the Wizarding World of Harry Potter it’s served as a fizzy beverage, I’m assuming they know something we don’t 😛
It tastes a little bit like pumpkin juice, but more refreshing and of course – carbonated too.
But don’t just dilute your juice with a fizzy drink. I promise you, it will not taste well. I’ve got a special, truly magical formula for it. It’s always a hit at Harry Potter themed parties.
