How to make a pumpkin latte with homemade ingredients

  1. Combine all ingredients into a sauce pan, stir together until smooth. Heat up the puree mixture (so it doesn’t make the latte cold).
  2. Place the puree in a cup, add a shot of espresso; stir together until smooth.
  3. Steam whole milk (or microwave, or heat on the stove) and pour over espresso and pumpkin mixture.
  4. Gently mix together until dissolved. The milk will be a warm caramel color.
  5. Top latte with a dollop of vanilla whipped cream, and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Real Pumpkin Spice Latte Recipe

We are an espresso family, using the best coffee beans (Storyville Coffee, delivered to our house each week), and we love our Jura espresso machine. It’s a “machine,” for sure, as in it pumps out lots of espresso on a daily basis! LOL

This recipe, full of love, is perfect for pumpkin season!

Froth up the milk, if you can. If not, heat on the stove (or microwave).

If you normally buy these at Starbucks, make your own and save a bunch of money! So good, if you’re craving  a Pumpkin Latte!

ENJOY!
