- Sprinkle in the 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon of ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg.
- Place the lid securely on your blender.
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy, typically about 1-2 minutes. If needed, stop and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- If you prefer a thinner smoothie, you can add additional almond milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, blending until you reach your desired consistency.
- For a thicker smoothie, add a little more canned pumpkin or a few more ice cubes and blend again.
