3. Label and Date: It’s a good practice to label the container with the date to keep track of freshness.

When you’re ready to enjoy your homemade keto pumpkin spice latte, you can reheat it gently on the stovetop in a small saucepan or in the microwave. Be cautious not to bring it to a boil; just warm it to your desired temperature.
