Create a rich, creamy, and cozy Pumpkin Spice Latte at home that rivals your favorite coffee shop. This easy recipe uses real pumpkin puree for authentic fall flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup strong brewed coffee or 1–2 shots espresso
  • Whipped cream and extra spice for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine the milk, pumpkin puree, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract in a small saucepan.
  2. Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly, until it is hot and steaming, but do not let it boil.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat. For a smoother texture, you can strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pumpkin solids.
  4. Pour the strong coffee or espresso into your favorite mug.
  5. Pour the warm pumpkin milk mixture over the coffee.
  6. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of extra pumpkin pie spice. Serve immediately for a warm, comforting beverage.

Notes

  • For an Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte, skip heating the milk mixture. Instead, combine all ingredients (including cooled coffee) and shake well with ice before serving.
  • To make a simple Pumpkin Spice Sauce for multiple drinks, increase the ingredients and simmer gently until slightly reduced. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Use your favorite coffeehouse style drink components to customize the flavor.
