Fall is just around the corner and that gets me thinking about hot drinks and all things pumpkin. Today I married two of my favorite flavors to make this sugar free pumpkin spice hot chocolate recipe.
It’s a low carb hot chocolate drink taken to the next level with everyone’s favorite pumpkin spice syrup. You only need 4 or 5 ingredients to make this easy but tasty fall drink. Best of all it has only 102 calories and 2.4g net carbs.
Recipe ingredients I used.
You only really need 4 ingredients for this tasty hot chocolate drink and they are unsweetened almond milk, heavy whipping cream, unsweetened cocoa powder and Torani Puremade Zero Sugar Pumpkin Spice Syrup.
You can also use a little cinnamon powder to sprinkle on top but that’s just for color and isn’t necessary to the recipe.
Torani syrups – the easy way to low carb drinks this fall.
You all know I love my Torani syrups. I used them in drinks, gelatin desserts, popsicles, no bake cheesecake, fat bombs and even in keto oatmeal! They are a great way to add flavor without calories or carbs. And they have a huge selection of sugar free syrups.
I’m excited about their new line – Torani Puremade Zero Sugar Syrups – because they have zero calories but no artificial sweeteners or preservatives, no GMOs and they use colors from natural sources.
How to make this easy pumpkin spice hot chocolate.
- First get the hot chocolate going on the stove. In a small saucepan, add the almond milk, heavy cream and unsweetened cocoa. Whisk to combine and let it come to a simmer then take it off the heat.
- Pour in the Torani Puremade Zero Sugar Pumpkin Spice Syrup and mix well. Have a taste and see if it is sweet enough for your liking and add a little more syrup if you want.
- Pour into your favorite mug or glass and top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Or go the extra step and add some sugar free pumpkin spice whipped cream! (see below)
And if you want to go one step further try this pumpkin spice whipped cream!
Try this super easy but tasty low carb pumpkin spice whipped cream. Just add 1 cup of cold heavy cream to a mixing bowl and 2-4 tablespoons of Torani Puremade Zero Sugar Pumpkin Spice Syrup.
Beat with a hand mixer or standing mixer for a few minutes until it gets light and fluffy. You can use this on top of hot chocolate, coffee or tea.
It would also be great on this low carb pumpkin cake!
Other ways to use the pumpkin spice syrup.
As I mentioned above I used Torani sugar free syrups in many recipes and here are a few more ways you can use a bottle of Torani Puremade Zero Sugar Pumpkin Spice Syrup.
- Add to a hot cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate.
- Use it along with almond milk, pumpkin puree and protein powder for a healthy fall smoothie.
- Make a flavored whipped cream to top low carb cakes, muffins and pies.
- Use to flavor hot cereals like this keto oatmeal instead of sugar.
- Similar to the whipped cream you can whip it in with cream cheese to make a tasty sugar free frosting.
