Pumpkin Spice Shake

dedicated to my husband Jack

Pumpkin Treats in Autumn

Pumpkin Spice Shake: Real pumpkin, pureed and mixed with traditional pumpkin pie spice and vanilla Fresh Frozen Custard. The three items up for grabs on the Culver's fall menu are their frozen Pumpkin Spice Shake, a Pumpkin Pecan Concrete Mixer, and Pumpkin Cheesecake Concrete Mixer.
This is the season for pumpkin, so why not start your day with a protein shake! It's a great way to keep your blood sugar levels balanced plus burn stored fat as fuel. I just found about the 90 day challenge shake that testes like cake. There is just one flavor and endless possibilities of recipes for your daily shake. Here is one of my favorite shakes.
