If you're a fan of seasonal drinks, you may be excited to hear that Starbucks has brought back their Pumpkin Spice offerings. However, if you're trying to maintain a healthy diet, indulging in these drinks on a regular basis may not be the best idea.

Starbucks' popular Pumpkin Spice Latte and other seasonal drinks are high in calories and low in fiber. Additionally, they often contain multiple pumps of sugary syrups and sauces that can add up to the equivalent of a slice of cake. Although it's okay to enjoy these treats in moderation, making them a daily habit can lead to blood sugar spikes, hunger pangs, and make it difficult to achieve weight loss goals.

But don't worry, there are healthier ways to enjoy pumpkin spice at Starbucks. Here are five low-calorie options:

• Pumpkin Cold Foam Cold Brew: This refreshing drink is made with cold brew coffee, sugar-free vanilla syrup, and a pump of pumpkin sauce. Topped with cold foam, it has only 70 calories and 14 grams of sugar.

• Pumpkin Spice Hot Coffee: This simple yet flavorful drink is made with a blonde Americano, pumpkin sauce, sugar-free vanilla syrup, and steamed almond milk. It has only 90 calories and 10.5 grams of sugar.

• Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte: For a creamy and sweet treat, order an iced coffee with pumpkin sauce, sugar-free vanilla syrup, and a splash of light cream. It has only 90 calories and 12 grams of sugar.

• Skinny Pumpkin Cinnamon Iced Coffee: This light and refreshing drink is made with 2% milk, cinnamon dolce syrup, and a pump of pumpkin spice sauce. It has approximately 85 calories.

• Pumpkin Cold Brew: Similar to the first drink, this cold brew is made with pumpkin spice sauce and sugar-free vanilla syrup. Add light cream for a smooth finish. It has only 70 calories and 10.5 grams of sugar.

By choosing these healthier options, you can still enjoy the flavors of fall without sacrificing your health goals.
