I love a good pumpkin spice latte but I don't love all the calories, sugar, and synthetic ingredients in the ones I get from coffee shops. I make my own. It's easy and it tastes WAY better. You can make it iced or hot, whatever you prefer. There are 3 different recipes here - one requires a little more effort and ingredients.
Version 1 more work
1 single espresso shot
1/4 cup pumpkin fresh or canned
1/4 cup coconut milk or coconut cream
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
honey to taste (I use 1/2 teaspoon)
hot
Add coconut cream to a frother (preferably one that warms), froth well and set aside. Add pumpkin, coconut milk, honey, and vanilla to a blender. Blend well. Combine frothed milk and pumpkin espresso mixture together. Add pumpkin pie spice and stir well.
iced
Add all ingredients to a blender. Blend well and pour over ice. Keep reading for the easy version!
version 2 easy
2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 single shot espresso
Add pumpkin spice to espresso and stir well. Then add your frothed milk and stir lightly. Enjoy!
