As you may be able to tell by now if you are reading this blog (is there anybody reading this blog?), I love my pumpkin lattes! But something I don't love is the price, the inconvenience and most of all, the artificial chemical pumpkin syrup.
Then, a friend of mine posted
a blog link from
ChickAdvisor.com about how to make your own pumpkin spice latte right at home! I had some left-over coffee from the night before and some pumpkin in the fridge from when I made those
cookies, so I went for it.
 |
| Ingredients: Milk, vanilla, sugar, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice and coffee. |
 |
| Going off my phone for ingredient list because I was too lazy to print it out. |
 |
| Heating and whipping. |
 |
| All finished! |
Overall, this was a very nice morning treat. Does it hold up to Starbucks? No, of course not. Frothing with a whisk isn't the same as frothing with steam. But it tasted sweet, had a natural orange color from the real pumpkin and was flecked with spices. I like that it is all-natural and had no chemicals. It made enough for two and I had a little bit of the second half without any coffee, also yummy! And I think overall it took only about 5-10 minutes.
