A soothing caffeine-free pumpkin spice filled tea latte made with rooibos tea, that’s like fall in a mug.

Rooibos Pumpkin Spice Tea Latte in Cups

Ready or not, here comes fall.

It’s the season for chunky socks and sweaters and chilly mornings or evenings spent cozied up wrapped in an over-sized throw with your hands around a warm mug.  And nothing is more synonymous with fall than the comforting flavors of the season like, cinnamon, nutmeg and all those pumpkin pie spices.

Rooibos Pumpkin Spice Tea Latte Overhead VIew

Summer lemonades and iced teas give way to more soothing sips.  One of my go-to cool weather drinks is this tea latte filled with pumpkin spice.  It’s the perfect way to start the day on a chilly morning or wind down in the evening.  I make it with Rooibos tea so I can enjoy all the seasonal flavors minus the caffeine jitters, but of course you can also make this with regular black tea if you prefer.

It’s smooth and silky without being overly rich, with a mild and pleasantly warming spiciness from cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and a hint of anise.  A spoonful of pumpkin purée rounds out the pumpkin pie flavors, while coconut milk keeps things dairy-free while adding a wonderful creaminess. I’ve also added hemp seeds for body and a bit of protein to keep you going on those chilly mornings, and opted for Medjool dates to sweeten for their caramel-like flavor.  Richly flavored but evenly balanced, with just enough sweetness and spice, it’s like fall in a mug.

Now if you’re wondering about the throw you see, it’s this one by Boll & Branch.  The gorgeous pumpkin color is a limited edition of their 100% organic cotton cable knit throws, and it’s super cozy and comfortable.  I really appreciate a company that goes to the extra effort of producing quality goods that are eco-friendly, non-toxic and ethically sourced and produced and that’s exactly what they do, (read more about their story here) so I’m pleased to partner with Boll & Branch today to offer you a first look at their newest limited edition throw for fall.  If you follow along on Instagram, you’ll also have a chance to win one for yourself this week!

    Thank you for this great recipe! Can you tell me, please, if you use canned coconut milk, or the regular one in a carton? Thank you in advance! :)

      I use canned but feel free to use coconut milk that comes in a carton if you prefer. Please note that the coconut milk in the carton is lower in fat than canned coconut milk and will produce a less rich but equally tasty result!

    This looks so, so good and soul-warming. I'm so ready for the fall and all the delicious spices and tastes that is associated with it, but we're have a full on Indian summer here in Denmark right now, which is quite unusual. Not that I'm not enjoying the good weather, but fall is probably my favorite season, so I'm pretty excited about it :-) As soon as the temperature drops a little, I must make this latte. Love, Emma
