Ingredients
For the pumpkin spice syrup:
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 4 cinnamon sticks or 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 3 Tbsp canned pumpkin
To make the Pumpkin Spice Latte:
- 1/3 cup very strongly brewed coffee
- 6 oz milk, very hot
- 3 Tbsp pumpkin spice syrup, or amount as desired (depending on your preference)
- 1 Tbsp sugar, to taste
- Whipped cream, optional
- Salted caramel sauce, optional
Directions
- To make the syrup: Cook sugar and water in a small pot over medium heat until the mixture is completely clear. Whisk in the remaining ingredients and continue to cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Do not allow mixture to come to a boil. Allow mixture to cool for 10-15 minutes.
- Strain syrup through cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer into a large jar or bottle of your choice. (Depending on what kind of strainer is being used, the mixture may be needed to be strained more than once.)
- Yields about 2 cups syrup. It can now be stored in the fridge.
- To make the latte: Combine strongly-brewed coffee with the milk, and stir in pumpkin spice syrup and sugar to taste.
- Top with whipped cream and salted caramel sauce, if desired.
