How to Make a Pumpkin Keg
Step 1
Draw a line around the top of the pumpkin using a marker pen, and then use a sharp knife to cut off the top to form a lid.
Step 2
Scoop out the insides of the pumpkin, and then use the coring tool from the Pumpkin Keg Tapping Kit to make a hole about 2-3 inches above the bottom of the pumpkin.
Step 4
Fill the pumpkin with your chosen drink – the pumpkin keg works well with beer, cocktail punch or soft drinks.
Step 5
Enjoy! Place your finished pumpkin keg on the edge of a table and set the scene for your party! Dispense your drink by pulling the tap forwards.
