Pumpkin Pie Latte

Everything pumpkin at this time of the year! I've found some recipes that I couldn't resist...and I'm sharing with you!

SMOOTHIE MONDAY

PUMPKIN PIE LATTE

1 1/2 cups coffee, frozen, partially thawed [don't use bold or extra bold--it will be too bitter]
2 Tbsp. pumpkin, canned
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. pumpkin spice, ground
1 Tbsp sugar
1/2 cup half & half [or use "pumpkin pie spice creamer for an added boost in the flavor!]

• Mix all the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.
• [optional] Top with whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon.
