A cozy, caffeine-free twist on the classic fall latte, the Herbal Pumpkin Spice Latte combines pumpkin purée, warming spices, and herbal tea for a creamy, aromatic, and soothing beverage. Perfect for relaxing evenings or anyone seeking a comforting autumn drink without coffee.

Ingredients

  • 2 herbal tea bags (such as rooibos, chamomile, or spiced blend)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 1/2 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy such as almond, oat, or coconut)
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin purée
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Whipped cream or coconut cream (optional, for topping)
  • Ground cinnamon or nutmeg (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Brew the herbal tea in hot water according to package directions and set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, whisk together the pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spice, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt.
  3. Gradually add the milk, whisking until smooth and well combined.
  4. Heat the mixture over medium-low heat until steaming but not boiling.
  5. Pour the brewed tea into the pumpkin-milk mixture and whisk to combine.
  6. Taste and adjust sweetness or spice as desired.
  7. Pour into mugs, top with whipped or coconut cream, and sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg before serving.

Notes

  • Rooibos tea adds a naturally sweet and earthy base, but chamomile or cinnamon blends work well too.
  • For a vegan version, use non-dairy milk and maple syrup or agave as a sweetener.
  • Blend after heating for an extra frothy, café-style texture.
  • Use coconut milk for a rich, tropical variation.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat gently before serving.
