Because smoothies aren’t just for summer! This Skinny Pumpkin-Nog Smoothie is the perfect light and refreshing smoothie for the holidays!
Over the years I’ve grown to like egg nog. Before I met my husband I hand’t even tried it. It just sounded awful and I didn’t like the smell of it. Then I met Brett and he loved the stuff. He’d chug a gallon of it all by himself. Granted, those were his football-playing days and he was always trying to gain weight. Now, he’ll only drink the light stuff. It’s not as strong, which I actually like.
The first time I tried it I thought it was eh, okay. But the more and more I tried it, the more I liked it. I like it best when it’s diluted a little. My sister-in-law dilutes hers with diet coke! Of course I like that too:) #dietcokeforlife
This Pumpkin-Nog smoothie is right up my alley though. It’s a little bit egg-noggy and a little bit pumpkin-y. Perfectly sweet and refreshing and a guilt free holiday treat to enjoy. You know, to balance out all of the pie, cookies, and fudge we’ll eat!
I whipped this baby up in my new Hamilton Beach Smoothie Smart Blender. Push that little “auto smoothie” button and you’ve got a perfect smoothie in 45 seconds. Every single time. And look at those other fun options. I love mine!

Oh my goodness, pumpkin and eggnog is such a brilliant combo. I’m not the biggest eggnog person but I think I’d go crazy for this!
