Recipe: Vegan Pumpkin Spice Latte
It’s that time of the year again… the Pumpkin Spice Latte is back! Two of my favorite foods in the world are pumpkin and coffee. Coffee shops everywhere are offering this delicious fall favorite but if you want a healthy and vegan alternative, you’re in the right place.
The classic pumpkin latte from your favorite barista has high fructose corn syrup, dairy, calories, caramel coloring, and artificial flavors… YIKES! This healthy recipe is way better than the coffee shop variety, simple, and costs very little to make!
Caffeine-Free Pumpkin Spice “Latte”
If you love pumpkin spice lattes as I do, but want a caffeine-free alternative I want to share something else with you. While I love this recipe for a homemade pumpkin spice latte, I started drinking Organifi pumpkin spice “lattes” before bed three years ago, and right away I noticed a difference – more restful sleep and I wake up with a calm, clear mind.
And no, this “latte” isn’t full of sugar and caffeine! 😜 Instead, it’s an adaptogenic tea, 100% organic, formulated by herbalists to encourage rest and promote relaxation – it’s my Organifi GOLD!
But it’s not something I drink just for sleep and wellness. This delicious drink made by my friends at Organifi has become something I actually crave and look forward to every night. The taste is so yummy that I forget I’m actually getting incredible benefits.

PS – if you spend $5 on a coffee house latte – switching to this breaks out to under $2 a serving!

What could you use instead of agave?

Honey or maple syrup could work!

When I lived in Peru, I couldn't get canned pumpkin either. I used cooked sweet potato instead. It worked just fine!
