pumpkin spice latte

As the seasons change, we remember that our bodies are perpetually adjusting to our environments. To comfort the cooler air rolling in, please welcome our annual favorite: pumpkin spice! Our pumpkin spice latte is house-made with organic pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and a blend of warming spices, including cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. We also add a bit of ginger, juiced inhouse, that will help take the chill off. Ginger can help with inflammation and nausea, but the star of this drink is the pumpkin. Pumpkin is a significant source of vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin E. This popular gourd is an antioxidant and known to be an immune system booster, perfect for the seasons’ transition. Pumpkin spice will be available in lattes, but if you want to skip the espresso, you can also try out our pumpkin spice in a steamer or in a chai. And if the start of fall ends up feeling more like an extended summer, consider having your #PSL iced!
