Spice Up Your Easter Dinner With This Hot Honey Ham Recipe

The Most Magical 'Harry Potter' Cocktails

Pumpkin Juice

This Harry Potter-approved drink is ready in just 3 minutes with a quick blend of pumpkin, a few fruit juices, and apple cider. Feel free to spike this punch on your own for an even more magical sip! (via Brit + Co)

Unicorn Blood Mocktail

Get the kids in on the Harry Potter magic with a mocktail! The best part of this drink is without a doubt the golden candy flakes — they really add the magical feel we're looking for on our journey to Hogwarts ;). (via Nerdy Mamma)

Harry Potter Amortentia Potion Cocktail

One of our favorite potions in the Wizarding World is Amortentia (the love potion) for a few simple reasons: it's pink, it's glittery, and it's romantic. Need we say more? You won't want to wait until Valentine's Day to make your own considering it features homemade grenadine. Yes, please! (via Sugar and Soul)

The Howler

Mrs. Weasley's Howler (a magical letter that audibly reads itself to you, FYI) is one of the most memorable aspects of The Chamber of Secrets. And if Mrs. Weasley is one of your favorite characters then you should definitely make this fruity Harry Potter cocktail in her honor! (via The Starving Chef)

Harry Potter Boozy Frozen Butterbeer

We couldn't tell you how many times we wanted to try Butterbeer growing up (the scene in The Half-Blood Prince movie where all the characters spend time at The Three Broomsticks played a pivotal role in this craving). Now not only can we make it ourselves, but we can make it boozy. Say no more! The secret here is going to be a butterscotch schnapps + vanilla vodka combo. Wow. (via Feast and West)

Liquid Luck [Felix Felicis]

This might be the easiest drink you've ever made — it only requires three ingredients! Liquid Luck's most recognizable feature is its golden shimmer so don't be afraid to add a lot of edible glitter and by a lot, we mean a lot. (via In Literature)

Gillywater

In the Harry Potter universe, gillyweed is a plant that, when consumed, gives you gills and webbed fingers and toes. While we don't have gillyweed, you can swap it for cucumber, mint, and limes. We'd definitely consider this drink to be the most magical water ever! (via Whip & Wander)

Unicorn Blood Harry Potter Cocktail

In the Harry Potter books and movies, unicorn blood is silver and has the power to keep someone alive. Talk about a powerful drink! This Harry Potter cocktail uses Elderflower liqueur and Creme de Violette to get that gray finish. Feel free to add edible glitter for some extra sparkle. (via Gastronom)

Death Eater Negroni

This dark and moody version of the classic drink is the perfect thing to sip on during your next Harry Potter marathon, Halloween get together, or any regular night of the week. Gin, pomegranate juice, and Campari come together to create something magical. (via Half Baked Harvest)

Butterbeer Cocktail

While nonalcoholic recipes for Butterbeer abound, this version has some kick, thanks to vanilla vodka, butterscotch schnapps and a glug of Guinness. A couple of these will have you dancing around like happy house elves. (via Cooking With Curls)

Peach and Raspberry Unicorn Blood Cocktail

The secret to this gorgeous-looking cocktail is the “shimmery liqueur” recipe, which provides the magical silvery swirls. But it’s the homemade raspberry puree that makes it taste so delicious. Disclaimer: No unicorns are harmed in the making of this Harry Potter cocktail. (via The Flavor Bender)

Witches Brew Cocktail

Though not referenced by name in the series, this punch is an homage to the Hogwart’s spirit. It can be made ahead of time in big batches, freeing you up to mingle with the other witches… er, we mean guests. Made of orange juice, pomegranate juice and citrus vodka, it goes down real easy. (via Cooking With Curls)

The Hermione Granger Cocktail

In honor of one of the best leading ladies of all time, make this delicious and fruity Harry Potter cocktail for your next Hogwarts party. It features raspberries, lemon, vodka, and sparkling water for a flavor experience worthy of this Gryffindor. (via Half Baked Harvest)

Polyjuice Potion

No Harry Potter party is complete without a big vat of Polyjuice punch. This recipe calls for lime sherbert, vodka and soda, and it bubbles up ominously when first mixed. Serve it immediately after pouring so that your guests can get the full effect. (via Cooking With Curls)

Pumpkintini

Like Harry’s favorite pumpkin juice, this blend of pumpkin puree and coconut milk is refreshing and delicious. Unlike Harry’s sipper, though, this one is spiked with white rum and whiskey. Rim the glass with crushed graham cracker crumbles and it’s like drinking pumpkin pie. We think grown-up Harry would approve. (via Cooking With Curls)

Polyjuice Potion Jelly Shots

These creepy gelatinous blobs are made with pineapple juice, pineapple vodka, ginger ale and lime sherbet, and are just as tasty if you leave out the alcohol so that you can serve them to kids. Remove the jellies from their molds before they’re completely set if you want to get the right ghastly bubbly-potion effect. (via Jelly Shot Test Kitchen)

Protein Pancakes

These hearty protein pancakes provide such a nice balance between getting your daily nutrition in while also enjoying a sweet treat. Pro tip: add in some pumpkin pie spice to give the batter even more fall edge and flavor! (via Brit + Co)

Lazy Breakfast Sandwiches

These crowd-pleasing breakfast sandwiches are made possible with the magic of Hawaiian sweet rolls. First, batch-cook your eggs and sausage in a sheet pan, then get ready to build the tastiest sammies of your life. The best part is they're highly customizable – add in veggies to the eggs and play around with different cheeses until you find your perfect fall breakfast combo. (via Maria Provenzano for Brit + Co)

Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal Muffins

Use up some oats, warm spices, and your apple of choice (we get it – not everyone can be a Granny Smith fan), and a few other pantry staples to craft these nutritious breakfast muffins. Just toss all the ingredients in one big bowl and bake, then you've got enough on-the-go bites to last you the entire week! (via Brit + Co)

Vegetarian Egg Cups

These healthy egg bites are reminiscent of our fave Starbucks food order, but cost way less to make right at home. You can easily swap out the veggies and choice of cheese for your own personal taste, too. These meal prep-able bites make the perfect fall breakfast since they're packed with enough protein to fuel you for the day. (via Kelly Senyei of Just a Taste for Brit + Co)

Traditional Norwegian Pancakes

You'd be surprised at just how easy these Norwegian pancakes are to make! Just 5 ingredients, and you've got some seriously delish, satisfyingly thin, and perfectly sweet flapjacks on your plate. Top your creation with seasonal fruits like apple, cranberry, or figs to really dig into the fall vibes. (via Sarah Anderson for Brit + Co)

Chicken & Waffles

Does it really get better than some good ol' chicken & waffles? We think not. The crispy, breadcrumb-covered chicken tenders in this recipe do require a bit of extra work, but it's so worth it once you sink your teeth into a bite that's both sweet and savory. And syrupy – never forget the syrup! (via Sarah Anderson for Brit + Co)

Olympic Chocolate Muffins

Chocolate is yummy any time of year, which is why you need to try making these muffins that went viral over the summer Olympics. Made with a touch of instant coffee and packed with a rich dark chocolate ganache filling, these may not be the healthiest of fall breakfast ideas, but dang, are they good! (via Jordan Howlett / Brit + Co)

Gluten-Free Pumpkin Breakfast Cookies

These healthy, gluten-free, and low-cost breakfast cookies will certainly set your day off on the right foot. Pumpkin puree, flax meal, pepitas, dried cranberries (for the fall-ness of it all), and coconut are all wonderful additions to the oat-packed dough. (via The Real Food Dietitians)

Vegan Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole

This dairy free, vegetarian, and vegan breakfast casserole is perfect for serving a brunch crowd with specific dietary restrictions. It's definitely super hearty since it's made with tater tots, tofu scramble, and plant-based sausage. It delivers the same bulky, breakfast-y effect as a non-vegan option would, and the best part is you'll have plenty of leftovers if you end up making it just for yourself! (via The Edgy Veg)

Monkey Bread

Monkey bread is the childhood breakfast of our dreams, so if you're stuck on what to make the fam for a lazy Sunday brunch, let this recipe dissolve all your problems – no monkey business here! These soft and doughy bread rolls get coated in a delightful cinnamon-sugar blend before being glazed in a super-sweet cream cheese frosting. (via Clean Cuisine)

Cheesy Pesto Avocado Bacon Breakfast Burritos

These totally meal prep-worthy burritos combine cheese, eggs, spinach, roasted potatoes, avocado, and crispy bacon for a very satisfying fall breakfast. Your morning routine will become a thousand times easier if you make 'em ahead of time and freeze them so they keep the entire week! (via Half Baked Harvest)

Buttermilk Biscuits & Sausage Gravy

It doesn't get more fall than this! These buttery biscuits paired with a rich sausage gravy simply don't compare to anything you can order at a restaurant since they're made with love right at home. (via Completely Delicious)

Gingerbread Oatmeal

Your kitchen will start smelling like absolute heaven the moment you start whipping up this oatmeal on the stove top. With the help of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, this hearty, fiber-rich bowl earns the tastiest fall twist. (via Kathryn's Kitchen)

Leftover Mashed Potato Waffles

Potatoes and waffles are pretty much two of our favorite things, so combining each food into one is so genius. You'll fall in love with the crispy exterior, while the inside stays fluffy and tender. Serve with avocado, lox, or eggs to make these bites even more breakfast-worthy. (via The First Mess)

Shakshuka

Shakshuka – AKA runny eggs cooked in a bath of flavorful tomatoes, bell pepper, and spices – is a classic when it comes to fall breakfast ideas. There's a good amount of spicy flair and plenty of heartiness to go around. Share this one-skillet meal with friends and loved ones with a side of toasty, crispy bread for dipping delight. (via Feel Good Foodie)

Apple Cider Mochi Donuts

Apple cider donuts for the win! These sweet treats have a unique mochi-like texture, thanks to the addition of sweet rice flour. It makes them super tender and bouncy – you won't be able to get enough! These donuts would make an excellent addition to your Saturday breakfast plans alongside a cup of pumpkin-spiced coffee for fall time. (via Takes Two Eggs)

Sweet Potato Muffins with Maple Pecan Butter

These muffins are 100% vegan, though they don't taste like it at all! They're also free of processed sugar, making them a healthy bite to enjoy in the AM. The maple-pecan butter totally makes this recipe. (via Butternut Bakery)

Who's in The Princess Diaries 3 cast?

Anne Hathaway finally confirmed her return to the world of Genovia with an Instagram video in early October. But will Chris Pine be joining her?

"I don't know anything," the actor said on The Today Show on October 8. "Call Disney. Call Bob Iger. The answer is honestly I don’t know anything about it. I think it’s fantastic."

Chris' character Nicholas Devreaux, and his relationship with Mia in Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, was a lot of millennial and Gen Z viewers' first enemies-to-lovers relationship, and it's safe to say we've never been the same. While Chris Pine claims he has no clue whether he'll return, his recent haircut (which is very similar to Nicholas') has fans calling his bluff.

"I need Chris Pine to return as Nicholas Devereaux looking like this in Princess Diaries 3, and I will not be taking questions at this time," one X user tweeted, while another agrees, "oh he's definitely already taping the 3rd movie as we speak and you can't convince me otherwise."

Julie Andrews and Raven-Symoné have also been a part of the franchise, but there's no word on whether they'd return either. In December of 2022, Variety reported that Julie Andrews doubts that she'll be able to return to the franchise, but we're still holding out hope!

Stay tuned for the official Princess Diaries 3 cast list!

When is the Princess Diaries 3 release date?

Rom-com fans will be thrilled to know Adele Lim, who worked on Crazy Rich Asians (one of the best rom-coms of the 21st Century) will direct. We don't have a release date yet, but it appears pre-production has begun. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Supergirl and Quantum Leap writer Aadrita Mukerji is working on the script, and producer Debra Martin Chase (who worked on the first two films) is returning to produce. We're all in favor of women behind the scenes, so this news gets two thumbs up from us!

Anne Hathaway (whose new movie The Idea Of You is streaming on Prime Video now) recently revealed the movie's development is going very well. “We’re in a good place,” she tells V Magazine. “That’s all I can say. There’s nothing to announce yet. But we’re in a good place.”

What has Anne Hathaway said about Julie Andrews?

In her recent cover story with Vanity Fair, Anne Hathaway talks about how working with Julie Andrews changed her life forever. “She respected that [fans] had a relationship to her work that spanned their entire lives and made it a beautiful experience for them,” she says of Julie stopping to sign autographs every day during The Princess Diaries. “I don’t know that I was always capable of that. So I’ve learned that I want to handle myself in a way that I’m going to be proud of at a later date.”

Anne also has a major appreciation for howThe Princess Diaries franchise as a whole turned her life upside down. "This was the film that changed my life," she says. "It felt so big at the time, and it wound up being so big, and it's kind of just gotten bigger as my life has progressed...So this is a total fusion of life and work, and all the things, and I'm just so proud to be in this movie."

What is The Princess Diaries 3 about?

We don't have an official script, but according to sources, the film might continue the storyline from the previous two movies. Based on the books by Meg Cabot, both films follow Mia Thermopolis (Anne Hathaway), an awkward high schooler who learns she is next in line to be queen of Genovia. Makeovers, royal balls, romance, and tons of fun follow.

Gary Marshall, the director of the first two movies who passed away in 2016, told People that one idea he shared with Anne Hathaway was to set The Princess Diaries 3 in the big city: "It looks like we want to do Princess Diaries 3 in Manhattan." As someone who lives in New York City, I might be biased, but setting the story in Manhattan would be INCREDIBLE. Would Mia hang out at the Met? Would the movie feature any nods to The Devil Wears Prada? Anne Hathaway, if you need another background extra, hit me up!

Where can you watch The Princess Diaries 3?

It's TBD whether this film would release in theaters or on streaming, but you can watch both The Princess Diariesand The Princess Diaries 2on Disney+ now ;).

What's the Princess Diaries cast saying?

Don't fret, Princess Diaries fans, Chris Pine is TOTALLY on board for a Genovian reunion. "Yeah, I'm here! I'm here for it," Pine told Entertainment Tonight. "Give me a phone call or an email."

The actor (and our personal crush) played Lord Nicholas Deveraux in 2004's The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement. Deveraux rivaled Anne Hathaway's Princess Mia Thermopolis for the throne, becoming her friend and love interest.

Recently, Hathaway toldPeople that the a third installment in the franchise was still in development and far from production, but it was "thrilling" to "see the level of excitement for it." However, while the movie industry gears turn slowly, she is still very much advocating for the long-awaited three-quel.
