About Pumpkin cold brew

Pumpkin cold brew is a seasonal coffee beverage that combines cold brew coffee with pumpkin spice flavors, often topped with a pumpkin-flavored foam or syrup. Originating in North America, it aligns with autumnal themes and is popular in cafés during the fall season. As a beverage, its nutritional profile depends on its ingredients, but a typical serving contains caffeine, carbohydrates, and sometimes fats and sugars from added cream or syrups. It is a flavorful and aromatic way to enjoy coffee, with pumpkin spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove adding warmth and depth. Cold brew coffee also tends to be less acidic than traditional hot coffee, making it gentler on the stomach.

Health Benefits

• Caffeine boosts alertness and cognitive function, derived from cold brew coffee.
• The cinnamon in pumpkin spice can support blood sugar regulation, as it contains antioxidants like cinnamaldehyde.
• Pumpkin provides beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, which benefits eye health.

Dietary Considerations

Allergens: Contains dairy (if cream or milk is added), tree nuts (in some syrups or creamers)

Suitable for: Vegetarian (when no animal-based ingredients are used), low-acid diets (as cold brew is less acidic)

Not suitable for: Vegan (if dairy is included), low-sugar diets (due to added syrups)

Selection and Storage

Store cold brew coffee in the refrigerator for up to a week. If adding homemade pumpkin spice syrup, refrigerate it in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
