Instructions

If adding coffee or espresso, prepare at this time and set aside.

HOT VERSION

To a small saucepan, add dairy-free milk and water. Bring to a simmer, then add pumpkin purée, spices (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, clove) or pumpkin pie spice, cardamom (optional), black pepper, and maple syrup. Whisk until smooth. Note: A little separation is natural with both the pumpkin and dairy-free milk, so whisk/stir as needed to smooth.
Add coffee, espresso, or dandy blend and vanilla and whisk until smooth.
Taste and adjust flavour as needed, adding more spices to taste, espresso coffee or coffee alternative for stronger coffee flavour, or maple syrup for sweetness.

ICED VERSION

Add all ingredients to a jar with a lid and stir to combine. Then add ice, secure lid, and shake vigorously to combine — about 30 seconds.

FOR SERVING

Serve as is, or top with coconut whipped cream and a pinch of pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, or nutmeg.
Store cooled leftovers in the refrigerator up to 1 week. Because of the pumpkin purée and dairy-free milk, separation is natural. Simply stir before serving or whisk when reheating on the stovetop.
