Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino

By 10 Comments

It seems like fall is in the air everywhere but here. I’ve already caught a cold and runny nose, but it’s still blazing heat outside. Looks like somebody’s got a case of the Mondays…

I know Florida takes a little while to cool off but would it hurry up already? Fall is my absolute favorite season. I can’t get enough pumpkin spice candles, burlap, mums, leaves and orange decor. As soon as September rolls around I’m one of those that has the fall mantel completed and the pumpkin candles burning throughout the house. 
So to cool off while getting ready for the season, I blended up this. orange. creamy. goodness. 
Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino. 
It’s the perfect balance of sweet pumpkin and coffee. Shhh, don’t tell Starbucks. 
I’ve added pumpkin to smoothies in the past and have learned the best way to get a really cold smoothie is to freeze canned pumpkin in ice cube trays. You’re welcome. 
I hope you are getting to feel the coolness of the season, if not go blend this and pretend it’s fall with me.

    I'm so in the pumpkin mood girl and this Frappuccino looks heavenly. It must be fall or something, but all I keep thinking about is pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins and pumpkin pie! xoxo, Jackie
