When the temperature drops and the leaves turn, cozy plant-based drinks for fall are the first things I want to make. There is something so comforting about wrapping both hands around a warm, spiced mug on a chilly afternoon.
You don't need dairy to get a creamy, coffee shop style drink at home. A splash of my brown sugar simple syrup sweetens any latte, and if you stock up on oat milk, here is how to freeze oat milk so it keeps. For anything finished with a dusting of spice, the right cinnamon sugar ratio makes a real difference.
I'm sharing 30 of the best cozy plant-based drinks below. They include Pumpkin Chai Latte, Gingerbread Latte, Mulled Cider and more. Most come together on the stovetop in minutes, while the ciders can simmer away in a slow cooker. Pick a few to try this week!
