Two Words come to mind during the Fall Season: Pumpkin Spice. Come October, Pumpkin Spice is found in many coffee drinks for its warm spicy feeling and not to mention deliciousness! However, day after day it could add on the unwanted calories. A 16-ounce Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino without whipped cream comes in at 330 calories, 70 grams of sugar, 3.5 grams of fat and 5 grams of protein. On the flip side, if you want the pumpkin flavor with a caffeine boost here is a delicious Pumpkin Latte Smoothie Recipe just for you! It has 250 calories, 13 grams of sugar, 2 grams of fat, 9 grams of protein and is a great source of Vitamin A and Fiber! Sounds like a healthier deal to me!
