Pumpkin Spice Mocktail Ingredients
Homemade Pumpkin Spice Syrup
- 1/2 cup organic pumpkin puree
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ginger
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp cloves
- 3 Tbsp coconut sugar
- 1/3 cup and 2 Tbsp water
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Pumpkin Spice Mocktail
- 2-3 Tbsp homemade syrup
- 4-6 oz of sparkling or still water
- 1/4 lemon (squeezed)
- Peace Love Hormones Bitters (for liver and gut support!)
Directions - Homemade Syrup and Pumpkin Spice Mocktail
Step 1 - Homemade Pumpkin Spice Syrup
(note that this recipe makes enough pumpkin spice syrup for about 8-10 servings - easily refrigerate the extra and use in this recipe, homemade coffees or even on top of waffles or pancakes!) Add the pumpkin puree, spices and water to a pot on medium heat - stir for about 3 minutes.
Step 2
Add in the maple syrup, coconut sugar and vanilla extract — cook on low heat until bubbling slightly.
Step 3
Continue stirring until it turns into a *syrup* consistency (this helps it mix in with the pumpkin spice mocktail more easily).
Step 4
Pour the syrup into a glass container and refrigerate until cooled (or, place in the freezer for about 15 minutes to quickly cool it down!)
Step 5 - Pumpkin Spice Mocktail
To make the pumpkin spice mocktail itself - add about 3 Tbsp of the pumpkin spice syrup to your cup (add less or more depending on how sweet you like your mocktails), add about 4-6oz of sparkling or still water, squeeze 1/4 of a lemon and a dropper-full of PLH Bitters to support the gut + liver!
Enjoy your autumnal pumpkin spice mocktail!
