Pumpkin spice coffee smoothie with protein powder is basically the multitasking queen of breakfasts—caffeine, nutrients, and dessert vibes in one frothy glass.
It fuels your day, flatters your cravings, and makes you forget that you’re technically drinking vegetables before 9 AM.
Pumpkin purée, espresso, and spices create fall-in-a-cup magic, while protein powder convinces you this is a post-workout decision, not indulgence.
The blend is creamy, satisfying, and strong enough to make skipping overpriced lattes feel like an actual accomplishment.
