Now that pumpkin recipes abound all around me, I couldn’t resist trying my hand at a homemade version of this popular drink, without any of the flavored syrups. I adapted my Cafe con Leche recipe to turn it into this rich and creamy holiday treat.

Definitely not a first thing in the morning coffee fix for me, but an awesome treat for dessert or for enjoying while spending the afternoon with a friend. I made ours with decaf espresso and let the kids have a few sips too. The recipe can easily be halved for one drink or doubled for more. With or without the whipped cream and caramel, this drink is a great fall treat.
