Brew Your Coffee

Begin by brewing a fresh cup of hot coffee or espresso to your liking.

In a blender, combine the brewed coffee, unsweetened canned pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, keto-friendly sweetener, unsweetened almond milk, and MCT oil. Blend until all the ingredients are well mixed and the latte is smooth.

Heat and Serve

Pour the blended mixture into a saucepan and heat it on the stovetop over medium heat. Be sure not to bring it to a boil; just warm it to your desired temperature.

Top and Garnish

Pour your keto pumpkin spice latte into a cozy mug. If you like, add a dollop of unsweetened or keto-friendly whipped cream on top and a pinch of ground cinnamon for a decorative touch.

Sip and Savor

TIPS AND TRICKS

• Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding more or less keto-friendly sweetener.
• You can use store-bought pumpkin pie spice or create your own blend with ground cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves.

HOW TO STORE

1. Allow to Cool: Allow your leftover latte to cool to room temperature before storing. This helps maintain the quality and prevents temperature changes in your refrigerator.

2. Use an Airtight Container: Transfer the cooled keto pumpkin spice latte to an airtight container. Ensure that the container is sealed tightly to prevent moisture and odors from affecting the drink.

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

4. Refrigerate: Place the airtight container in the refrigerator. The keto pumpkin spice latte should stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.

Reheating:

When you’re ready to enjoy your stored 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.

By properly storing your keto pumpkin spice latte, you can extend its shelf life and have a cozy, low-carb treat ready whenever you need a comforting sip of autumn.
