Pumpkin Pie Smoothie [Recipe]

I don’t know about you, but when I think of Fall a Starbuck’s Pumpkin Spice Latte always springs to mind! For those of you who who can’t live without a bit of pumpkin spice in your life, try out this low carb pumpkin pie smoothie. It’s great for breakfast or a snack and super filling from all the fiber that’s in pumpkin.

For those in the Northern Hemisphere, October usually marks the start of autumn (“fall”) but living in Florida the change in season isn’t quite so obvious! My first indicator that Fall was here was seeing all the pumpkins lined up outside Whole Foods. Aren’t the colours, shapes and sizes just incredible!?

It’s been a long, hot, sticky summer so I can’t tell you how excited I was when I saw them.  I knew that cooler weather would soon be with us. Until then, I’m gonna get my pumpkin spice latte fix with this refreshing smoothie instead. It’s the perfect healthy drink for the holidays! Speaking of healthy drinks, make sure you check out our Skinny on Starbucks ordering tips!
