Autumn is in the air, and it’s officially “pumpkin-spiced treat” season!

Rather than indulging in a sugar-laden latte, enjoy our Pumpkin Pie Gingerbread Smoothie as a homemade, guilt-free alternative.

Brimming with bone-building protein and nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and vitamin C, our pumpkin pie smoothie is creamy, rich, and whips together in less time than it takes to sit in the coffee shop drive-thru.

This drink makes a great on-the-go breakfast or afternoon snack – give it a try this week!
