Let’s start making your own homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte!
Start by placing a saucepan on your stove and set the heat to medium. Meanwhile, prepare the pumpkin pie spices in a bowl. The spices are pretty tricky to nail. So for a perfectly spiced Pumpkin Spice Latte, put exact amounts as mentioned:
Add milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup (according to your taste/sweetness), vanilla extract as well as all the spices in the saucepan. Heat the mixture and whisk well.
Let the mixture come to a boil. Meanwhile, make ¼ cup of coffee in a coffee maker.
Once the coffee is ready and the bubbles start to appear in the saucepan, add in the coffee, and stir well.
Take out your favorite coffee mug and drop in the Pumpkin Spice Latte.
Finally, garnish your Pumpkin Spice Latte with some whipped cream and sprinkle over some of the stored spice.
