How do you make a Pumpkin Spice Latte?

Question

Like at home, I don't get out much so I don't know if it's at Starbucks again... Can you buy the stuff at like Albertsons or you know, around?

Answer 1

Ingredients: Makes 2 servings

1 level tablespoon pumpkin puree

1 cup milk (whole if you dare!)

1/2 tablespoon light brown sugar (packed and leveled)

1/4 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp nutmeg (+ a pinch for dusting later)

1/8 tsp ground cloves

1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

2 cups strong coffee (brewed using 2 tbs per 1 cup of water)

You can also use a shot or two of espresso instead of coffee.

4 tablespoons Coffeemate creamer

4 to 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar

Whipped cream

Begin brewing coffee.

In a blender puree the milk, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, brown sugar and vanilla. Pour into a small saucepan and cook over low heat until the milk is warm and begins to froth slightly. (About 4-5 minutes.) Remove from heat.

For each serving: Pour 1/2 cup of the pumpkin mixture into your coffee mug. Add 2 generous tablespoons of Coffeemate creamer. Heat in the microwave for 30 seconds, then add 1 cup of brewed coffee. Add 2 to 4 teaspoons of sugar (depending on how sweet you like your drink, I added 3 tsps.) Top off with a touch more ‘pumpkin milk’ then cover with whipped cream and sprinkle with nutmeg. Serve immediately.

Here is another one!  Good Luck!

List of Ingredients

3 heaping tbsp. canned pumpkin

2 tbsp. Vanilla syrup

1/4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice

(You can also order Pumpkin Spice syrup from Monin, maybe even your local Starbucks will sell you some. They now sell the Valencia, M'mmmm!)

If so use 1 tbsp. of Pumpkin Spice Syrup

1 cup milk

1-2 shots espresso

See note: Vanilla flavored coffee cream

Recipe

In a small saucepan, stir pumpkin puree into milk. Add vanilla syrup and pumpkin pie spice. Heat gently, continuing to stirring occasionally just until steaming and foam begins to appear.

Pour pumpking flavored milk into a tall mug and pour espresso over.

Top with whip cream and a dash of pumpkin pie spice.

Note: If you like it slightly sweeter; and I know I do, I add a wee bit of vanilla flavored coffee cream. If you like it less sweet, adjust to taste. No matter what though, ENJOY!
