Usually pumpkin spice refers to the spices used in cooking pumpkin pie. So what you're enjoying is less actual pumpkin and more a cocktail of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice and ginger.
Basically all things that are good and cozy :)
Companies will usually will add orange dye to these things to increase the association with pumpkins.
