I can’t believe how quickly fall is here. One of the first things I do to welcome fall is to make my homemade spice mixes, such as my pumpkin, gingerbread, and chai spice blend. Of course, the moment you have pumpkin spice on hand you have to make a pumpkin latte. The truth is, I am not a coffee drinker, and yet, I do love my latte both hot as well as iced. But, instead of making a trip to Starbucks, I prefer to make mine at home.
Step-by-step: Pumpkin spice latte
Brew the coffee and set it aside. In a saucepan, combine the milk, pumpkin puree, honey, pumpkin spice, and honey. Heat over medium heat until it comes to a boil – set aside. In a heatproof glass, pour the coffee, followed by the hot milk mixture. For garnish, you can use whipped cream, milk foam, or just sprinkle some more spices. Today, I topped it with whipped cream, pumpkin spice, and cinnamon.
