Ingredients
Milk Base
- 1 cup / 240 ml / 8 fl oz milk of choice (can be dairy milk or non-dairy milk alternative)
Main Ingredients
- 1/4 cup / 50 g / 1.7 oz pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin
- 1 tbsp clear honey (or maple syrup)
- 1/4 to 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Garnishes
- dollop of whipped cream
- pinch of pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Prepare Cold Pumpkin Spice Milk: Combine the milk, pumpkin puree, honey, and pumpkin pie spice in a blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Alternatively, place the ingredients in a large jar and use an immersion blender to blend until smooth.
- Heat for Warm Pumpkin Milk: If you prefer a hot beverage, pour all ingredients except the garnishes into a small saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat on the stovetop until the mixture is warm and steaming, stirring and whisking to combine thoroughly.
- Garnish: Pour the prepared pumpkin milk into a glass or mug. Optionally, top with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle a pinch of pumpkin pie spice on top to enhance the flavor and presentation.
- Serve: Serve immediately while warm or cold and enjoy your comforting pumpkin spice milk drink.
Notes
- You can adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to your taste preferences.
- Use any milk of your choice such as cow’s milk, almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk to keep it dairy or non-dairy.
- For a stronger pumpkin spice flavor, increase the pumpkin pie spice up to 1/2 teaspoon.
- The drink can be served either warm or cold depending on your preference and season.
- Whipped cream garnish is optional but adds a nice creamy finishing touch.
