Notes
- You can use any type of milk including almond, soy, oat, or cow’s milk depending on your preference or dietary needs.
- Adjust the sweetness to taste by adding more or less honey or maple syrup.
- Pumpkin pie spice can be homemade or store-bought; it typically includes cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- For a stronger pumpkin flavor, increase the pumpkin puree slightly but be mindful this may affect the texture.
- If warming the drink, stir frequently to prevent sticking or burning on the pan.
- Whipped cream garnish is optional but adds extra creaminess and flavor.
