Fall is here, and nothing says cozy like a pumpkin latte. But for many coffee lovers, the acidity of traditional coffee can turn this seasonal favorite into a guilty pleasure. That’s why we created this Oat Pumpkin Latte with Alex's Low-Acid Coffee — all the rich, spiced flavor you crave, without the burn. Smooth, creamy, and stomach‑friendly, it’s the perfect way to sip into the season.
Yields: 1 serving Prep time: 5 minutes Cook time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened oat milk (barista blend works best for frothing)
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup or sweetener of choice (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, plus extra for garnish
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (120ml) strong-brewed Alex's Low-Acid Coffee (hot or cold, depending on preference)
- Optional: Whipped cream or frothed oat milk for topping
Instructions:
- Combine & Heat: In a small saucepan, combine the oat milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup (or sweetener), pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract.
- Whisk & Simmer: Heat over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture is hot and steamy, but not boiling. This helps to fully dissolve the pumpkin and spices.
- Brew Coffee: While the milk mixture is heating, brew your Alex's Low-Acid Coffee. Make it strong for a rich latte flavor.
- Froth (Optional but Recommended!): If you have a milk frother (handheld or machine), froth the hot pumpkin milk mixture until it's light and foamy. If not, you can carefully transfer it to a blender and blend on low speed until frothy (be cautious with hot liquids!).
- Assemble: Pour the hot, strong-brewed Alex's Low-Acid Coffee into your favorite mug.
- Add Pumpkin Milk: Gently pour the frothed pumpkin milk mixture over the coffee. Use a spoon to hold back the foam, then spoon it on top.
- Garnish & Enjoy: Sprinkle with a little extra pumpkin pie spice. Sip and savor your perfectly cozy, low-acid pumpkin latte!
Tips for the Perfect Latte:
- Adjust Sweetness: Start with 1 tablespoon of sweetener and add more if desired.
- Spice It Up: If you love a strong spice flavor, add a pinch more pumpkin pie spice to the milk mixture.
- Iced Version: For an iced latte, brew your Low-Acid coffee ahead of time and chill it. Combine cold oat milk, pumpkin puree, spices, and sweetener in a blender until smooth. Pour over ice, then add the chilled coffee.
- Storage: Any leftover pumpkin milk mixture can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated gently.
Enjoy your delightful, stomach-friendly fall treat!
