Unfortunately, their version is loaded with sugar and carbs that will quickly kick you out of ketosis. But the good news is that it’s super easy to make a keto pumpkin spice latte right at home!
In fact, you can throw together this tasty drink in one pot on the stove. Simply combine and warm the ingredients, then top with whipped cream and spice!
Now you can enjoy your favorite pumpkin coffee drink this fall without the unnecessary carbs, sugar, or guilt. You may find yourself making it in the winter, spring, and summer, too!
How to make keto pumpkin spice latte
This delicious low carb latte comes together in just a few steps. It’s probably faster than running to your closest Starbucks!
- Heat the milk with pumpkin and sweetener. In a pot, combine the almond milk, pumpkin puree, and sweetener. Place the pot over medium heat. You don’t want it to boil, just bring the liquid to a warm temperature suitable for drinking.
- Add coffee, spice and vanilla. Once the mixture is warmed, remove the pot from the stove. Whisk in the ½ cup of coffee or espresso, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract.
- Serve with garnish. Divide the liquid evenly between two cups or mugs and top with sugar-free whipped cream and extra pumpkin pie spice.
The toppings are optional, but they make the latte so festive. I always like to include them.
What is pumpkin pie spice?
Pumpkin pie spice is actually just a mixture of warm spices that are popular in fall recipes. You can find it in the spice aisle of most grocery stores, but always check the label to make sure there’s no added sugar.
You can also easily make your own at home!
All you need is cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, and ginger. Most mixes are about half cinnamon, but feel free to experiment with the spices to find your perfect blend.
Ordering a keto pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks
So is it possible to order a keto version of the famous Starbucks PSL?
Their version is made with espresso, milk, pumpkin spice sauce, and vanilla syrup, then topped with whipped cream and their pumpkin spice topping. A grande made with 2% milk will have a whopping 52 grams of carbs.
There are ways to customize your drink to reduce the carbs. Of course, it won’t be exactly like the PSL, but you can always give it a try.
For the base of the latte, ask the barista to steam half water and half heavy cream instead of milk.
Then, ask for 1-2 pumps of pumpkin pie sauce. Each pump has about 5 grams of carbs and 7.5 grams of sugar, so 1 pump is best. Next, add 1-2 pumps of sugar free vanilla syrup, which has 1-2 carbs per pump.
Finally, ask them to add the pumpkin spice topping, which is simply a mix of spices.
This drink will probably have more carbs and sugar than is ideal. But if you’re really craving a PSL from Starbucks, you may as well give it a try.
Or, you can simply get all the amazing flavor without the carbs and sugar by making it at home!
