Icy cinnamon and spice, I can’t help but share this Keto Pumpkin Frappuccino with you even if some naysayers want to claim it’s too early for this drink.
This drink is pretty popular in the Fall, when the weather is swinging from unbearably hot during the day to chilly evenings.
And, it was inspired by my cold weather go to Pumpkin Spice Latte. It pairs well with spicy snacks like spicy crack chicken or salty mozzarella sticks when it’s snacky kind of day.

Substitutions
If you need to sub any of the ingredients for the Keto Pumpkin Frappuccino this is the place to look.
- Heavy cream – instead of heavy cream, you can use coconut cream for a dairy free option.
- Almond milk– coconut milk for a nut free option.
- Pumpkin – butternut squash makes and excellent sub for pumpkin.
- Deluxe – add vanilla extract for an extra special upgrade. Just a 1/4 teaspoon will do the trick.
- Cocktail additions – add a nip of Brandy or Whisky for a kick.
Equipment
You can use a blender or an immersion blender if you have one. I like to double this recipe to share so I always use a blender.
This one is by far and away my favorite blender ever. It’s not expensive but it’s dishwasher safe, comes with different sized cups and takes all of the abuse that I dish out. We’ve had it for FIVE years and it’s outlasted most of our other kitchen appliances.
Top tip
Make this recipe when you are ready to enjoy it. It doesn’t keep in the fridge. But the good news is that it’s so easy to make that it doesn’t have to.
Enjoy!
