A delicious cold fall beverage made with pumpkin, spice and everything nice of course.
This year I decided since we are outside most of the time in Florida and it's still gorgeous out here, I would make a pumpkin drink that will kick off the fall season when the weather starts to turn.
The drink is super easy to make and so much more economical than those pricey coffee shops who sell these pumpkin spice drinks.
Plus another bonus making this pumpkin spice frappe is you never have to leave your home or stand in long lines for one!
You can even top this off with whipped cream a drizzle of caramel or your favorite liqueur for an adult beverage!
