Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup freshly ground coffee grounds
  • 2 cups ZICO Organic Fair Trade Coconut Water
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • pinch black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • half of a vanilla bean (seeds removed)
  • 1 1/2 cups canned coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup Zico Organic Fair Trade Coconut Water
  • 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract

Method

  2. Make the pumpkin spice mixture by combining pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, black pepper, and maple syrup in a small saucepan. Cook until hot and fragrant.
  3. Combine and heat the latte by slowly stirring in the coconut milk, remaining 1/2 cup coconut water, and vanilla extract into the pumpkin mixture. Bring to a low simmer, stirring often.
  4. Froth the milk mixture by whisking vigorously until frothy once steaming hot.
  5. Assemble the latte by pouring coffee into a mug and adding the frothed milk mixture. Top with whipped cream and cinnamon if desired.

Notes

- For an extra rich flavor, use full-fat canned coconut milk.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup to your preference.
- If you don't have vanilla bean, pure vanilla extract is a great substitute.
- For a vegan option, ensure your whipped cream topping is dairy-free.
