Instructions
how to make a hot latte -
- To a saucepan, add pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and sugar. Heat on low until the mixture is warmed.
- Slowly whisk in the milk and the vanilla.
- Bring the milk to a light simmer and remove from heat.
- Add in the coffee and pour into coffee mugs.
- Serve with whipped cream on top and enjoy!
how to make an iced latte -
- To your mug, add shots of espresso (1-2 per cup, depending on your strength preference).
- To the mug, add pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, and vanilla. Mix until the pumpkin purée is dissolved. It’s important that the shots are hot so that the puree dissolves.
- Pour in the milk and top with ice.
Notes
- Get the perfect serving size: This recipe makes 2 lattes, so you can scale the portions up or down to make the perfect amount of lattes!
- Don’t scald the milk! Make sure not to let the milk get to a rolling boil, or else it will burn, and the taste won’t be good.
- Decorate your drink! We love to finish our latte with whipped cream, caramel drizzle, and a dash of cinnamon.
