Pumpkin "Nice" Steamer: A Coffee, Dairy, Ginger, and Clove Free Drink

Comments

​One of my favorite things about autumn is the spectacular flavors it inspires in cuisine. And pumpkin spice flavored beverages are definitely on the top of my list. However, I just completed a food sensitivity test, and it turned out that most of the elements in a pumpkin spice latte were potential allergens for me, including coffee, milk, ginger, and clove. So I had to find a way to still enjoy the taste I loved while avoiding the ingredients I am sensitive to. And the Pumpkin "Nice" Steamer was born. I hope you enjoy this drink as much as I do, and it gives you a pleasant alternative if you are on a restricted or allergy-sensitive diet.

Ingredients:
Unflavored, Unsweetened Almond Milk (Cashew or soy milk might work well also, but I have not tried them.)
Honey
Ground Cinnamon
Ground Nutmeg
Ground Allspice
Ground Turmeric

Pour your dairy-free milk into a microwave-safe mug and warm up for 2 minutes in the microwave, or you could do a bit longer depending on your temperature preference. Immediately sprinkle with a pinch each of all the spices and stir in 2 to 3 teaspoons of honey. Enjoy!


(Tip: I like to add the turmeric first, since it is very fine and light colored so I can gauge better how much I've added before I include the other spices.)
