Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients
Pro Tip: If you don’t have a pumpkin pie spice blend, make your own by combining 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ground ginger and â…› teaspoon ground cloves.
Instructions
1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm 2 cups of the milk, the pumpkin puree and brown sugar until it begins to lightly simmer. Do not let it boil. Once it is lightly simmering and hot, remove from heat.
2. Stir in the spices, vanilla and coffee. Pour into two mugs.
3. Before serving, froth the milk. To do this without a frother, place the remaining ½ cup of milk in a mason jar or container with a lid that can be sealed. Shake it vigorously for about 30 seconds, until it has frothed to more than double its original height. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. The foam will rise to the top of the milk. Immediately spoon on top of your lattes for a perfect finish.
4. Garnish with a little more pie spice, a drizzle of chocolate or garnished with whipped cream.
In step three, make sure to remove the lid before microwaving.
