Notes

Make sure you are using pumpkin puree and NOT the canned stuff.
Be sure to brew the chicory in advance, you want it to be quite strong for a better taste.
If you don't have a blender or want to use one, simply use a jar to shake the milk until it is frothy then add it to the chicory.
Make sure your instant chicory is GLUTEN FREE, some brands add barley so make sure you're using chicory that is labelled as GLUTEN FREE.
The topping is optional but to achieve these results you will need vegan style whipping cream to hand.
This recipe contains no coffee, however feel free to add a splash of coffee if you wish.
It's best to use a neutral tasting/frothy milk like Almond Milk or Cashew Milk so this doesn't compromise the taste of the pumpkin.
For a creamy smooth sweet taste be sure to use my Vegan Condensed Milk recipe.
