It is that time of year when fall sets in, the pumpkins are ripe, the winter squash is getting picked, collards and mustard greens are starting to take shape.
And you would think that with cooling temperatures we would need some warming libations to take the chill off!
Not today!!!
This pumpkin pie smoothie is a great way to enjoy a healthy treat! And in my new Tervis tumbler, this helps to ensure that my smoothie stays cool and that my furniture will not get all marked up with sweating glass stains either.
The Foodbuzz Tastemaker Tervis Tumbler was provided to me as part of the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program, I received this Tervis Tumbler as part of that program.
This fall inspired smoothie tastes like a slice of pumpkin pie in a glass, and each 8-ounces of a serving offers plenty of beta-carotene, one of the popular antioxidants known to help fight cancer.

I would make that pumpkin pie smoothie right now if I had the ingredients. Unfortunately, Pumpkin pie spice and Pumpkin pie spice flavored creamer are not available where I live. It looks like a healthy and delicious treat though. Enjoy it.
