Morning Monday! All Natural Pumpkin Spice Café Au Lait.
Look forward to the week with this #vegan pumpkin spice treat.
We all love that first sip of a Pumpkin Spice Latté from Starbucks or our neighborhood coffee shop. With 49 grams of sugar however, the crash can happen well before we even open our inbox, and we are starting our day off with a caloric surplus. Instead, try this all natural morning boost!
