So I found this recipe a while back that I've been wanting to try....this made it the perfect opportunity. Here's the blog I pinned it from. It's for a pumpkin spice frappe...super easy...one thing to prep in advance: 1 1/2 cups of frozen coffee (I used pumpkin flavored...naturally). I made the coffee last night and stuck it in the freezer. This morning when I got up, I set it on the counter to thaw for a few hours. When it was nice and thawed, I dumped all these ingredients into the blender:
1 1/2 cups thawed coffee
2 Tbsp. pumpkin, canned
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. pumpkin spice, ground
1 tsp. stevia
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk from a carton, not canned
I blended it all up and got 2 glasses full....delish! The recipe calls for whipped cream and ground cinnamon to garnish the top, but of course we didn't have any whipped cream...shoulda checked first! Oh well...still a yummy treat.
this beverage is responsible for me being fatter and broker this fall. making it at home will help in one aspect. now someone needs to pin a zero calorie whipped cream. thanks for linking up! so happy that you did!
