I can't keep spending $4 for a coffee. I LOVE Pumpkin Spice Lattes, but I have to find a way to get through this fall without personally keeping my Starbucks in business. So I experimented today. What I found? Yum.
Pumpkin Spice Coffee
16 oz brewed coffee
1 BIG tablespoon of pureed pumpkin
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Sweetener to taste (I used two packets of pure Stevia)
Milk to taste (I used a tablespoon of powdered milk; I like powdered milk for coffee because you can get fat free powder, but because you mix it directly into your coffee instead of into water, it makes the coffee rich and creamy like you used half and half, but doesn't add the fat or take up the space)
Mix it all up and enjoy. Not only is it totally tasty, it is actually GOOD for you. Coffee has antioxidents, milk has calcium, and pumpkin is a super food. You can't go wrong!
Very tasty! I adjusted it so I could use the espresso maker. Same pumpkin, spice, sweetener ratio--added to 1C milk and steamed/frothed. Topped with a double shot of espresso and whipped cream. Thanks!
