📝Ingredient notes
Unsweetened/unflavored almond milk- or your favorite tasting plant-based milk.
Pumpkin puree- not pumpkin pie filling! You want to use 100% pumpkin puree.
Pure maple syrup- make sure to use one labeled 100% pure and not just your average flavored pancake syrup. Those typically contain added sugars and ingredients.
Also, you could serve this drink with cold coffee over ice to make it an iced pumpkin spice latte.
