Pumpkin Spice Latte

This recipe makes 2 large mugs.

Pumpkin Spice Latte

2 cups milk

1.5 cups coffee

3-4 heaping teaspoons of pumpkin puree (not pie filling)

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

3/4 tsp cinnamon

pinch of both ginger and nutmeg - these are both optional

1 tsp vanilla

1-2 TBSP sugar

 

First place 2 cups milk and pumpkin puree in a microwave safe bowl. Heat on high for two minutes. Next carefully (because this is hot remember!) dump the milk and pumpkin into a blender.  Add in coffee, vanilla, and spices.  Place the lid on the blender and mix. I used the puree and liquefy buttons on my blender.  You don't have to mix it long, a minute or two and you're good!  See all the frothy goodness!  Yes this is why you use the blender, for the foam!  The other reason is it helps mix up the spices easier, and you won't feel like you're drinking grit in your coffee.  Place your pumpkin latte in your favorite mug.  And don't forget to add some cool whip.  Every good barista knows the cool whip makes the coffee!  Add a little sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice. 

 

And don't forget a few twists from the new fun grinder too!
