Pumpkin Spice Latte


Now I know I can't speak for everyone, but it seems that most people enjoy the changing of seasons from summer to fall. I know I do!

Fall can tease us - bringing cooler weather one week, only to be followed by hot 90 degree weather the next. So when the true fall season sets in, I rejoice! But how does one know?

I look to Starbucks to give me this information. When a Pumpkin Spice Latte lands on their menu, I declare it fall! But this little, addictive drink can be rather expensive. At least to me and my husband. Oh, I didn't tell you one of us is in graduate school at a top institution and the other is unemployed?! Such a perfect match, we are!


But I digress. When I found this recipe for a homemade pumpkin spice latte, well, I knew immediately that I wanted to make it. I bypassed the step that said to mix well in a blender, as I really didn't feel like dirtying the blender and then having to wash it. Yes, I am lazy. Yes, we don't have a dishwasher.

So I actually ended up with a pumpkin spice cafe au lait. Which was still incredibly delicious. If you want the frothy texture, be sure to blend this bad boy up. To get this recipe, please check out the link below!

  1. Hands down my FAVORITE thing to get at Starbucks! I will have to try this recipe b/c I agree, making a habit of them will set you back! I adore their pumpkin bread too!

  3. I love all things pumpkin! Starbuck's is pretty pricey. We rarely go. I'll be trying this at home!
