Pumpkin Spice Latte [Hot or Iced]
Description
This Pumpkin Spice Latte [Hot or Iced] uses plant-based milk heated gently with pumpkin puree and brown sugar to create a creamy, sweet base. Vanilla extract and pumpkin pie spice add characteristic autumnal flavors. Once combined, hot coffee is stirred in, blending the pumpkin-flavored base with the robust coffee notes.
The beverage’s preparation avoids boiling the milk to preserve its smooth texture. It can be served warm with vegan whipped cream and a dusting of pumpkin pie spice or cooled and served over ice, making it versatile for different preferences.
This latte fits well as a seasonal treat or a cozy pick-me-up. Repeating the spice to suit sweetness or spice intensity allows customization. Vegan whipped cream topping emphasizes its plant-based approach.
