Holiday Pumpkin Milk

It’s that time of the year where you just want to sit by a fire, wrapped in a blanket

and drink something that tastes like the holidays. Sure you can easily order the popular pumpkin spice latte from your local coffee shop but the trouble is this kind of beverage is loaded with refined sugars, caffeine, artificial flavorings and is very much depleted of vital nutrients. To avoid those empty calories, energy crash and unhealthy weight gain we want to introduce you to a totally delicious, dairy free, caffeine free and chemical free, whole food plant-based treat – The Holiday Pumpkin Milk.
