I've got some pumpkin in the fridge yet, and I wasn't too impressed by my first attempt at pumpkin fatty coffee. It's currently mid afternoon, and I'm kind of hungry but not like rawr feed me hungry. I decided to make a fatty coffee since I couldn't figure out what I wanted to eat.
This mug contains regular strength coffee, 2 tablespoons of butter, 2 caps of vanilla, some cinnamon, and 2 teaspoon sized scoops of pumpkin. No sweeteners, no dairy other than butter. Blended it all in my Ninja.
It's definitely not a clone by any means of the drinks from the cafe. It is coffee with a faint pumpkin note and a hint of spice. Because I actually like the taste of coffee, I'm happy with this. Happier than with the production I tried to make before. There's still the fiber and vitamin boost from the pumpkin, and the extra smooth texture it adds to the beverage. I'm sorry I don't tend to measure my spices in this stuff. It's usually a few shakes in the blender cup, and then a light sprinkle over the finished product for the aroma. I also use a 2 oz bottle of vanilla, so my cap fulls are sized for that bottle.
