A creation of ÉquipeNutrition , our dear collaborating nutritionists-dietitians.
Ingredients :
- 375 ml (1 ½ cups) unsweetened vanilla almond beverage
- 190 ml (¾ cup) canned pumpkin puree
- 30 ml (2 tbsp.) maple syrup
- 5 ml (1 tsp) ground cinnamon
- 2.5 ml (½ tsp) ground nutmeg
- 1 ml (¼ tsp) ground ginger
- 400 ml (1 2/3 cups) water
- 30 ml (2 tbsp.) Date Hearts from Création Délicia
Toppings (optional):
- 125 ml (½ cup) hot frothed milk
- 2 cinnamon sticks
Preparation :
- In a saucepan, combine all the ingredients except the water, date stone coffee and toppings.
- Heat over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring continuously with a whisk, without bringing to a boil.
- Meanwhile, prepare the roasted date pit beverage using a filter or French press coffee maker.
- Optional : pumpkin puree gives a thicker, creamier texture to the coffee. At this stage, you can blend the mixture to give a smoother texture, or filter the milk mixture using a sieve to remove the fiber from the pumpkin puree and make the preparation more liquid, less thick.
- Add the coffee to the date stones and divide the drink between 2 cups.
- If desired, top with frothed milk, sprinkle with cocoa and add a cinnamon stick.
