So everyone loves Starbucks, but does not want to pay for it, right? Well me being the coffee fanatic I am have been in search of the perfect pumpkin spice latte recipe for at home. Here it is:

2 cups milk
2 tablespoons canned pumpkin
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 tablespoon packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon and nutmeg)
strong coffee or espresso

Using a blender, puree milk, pumpkin, sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice until combined. Pour into a saucepan and heat over medium heat for about 5 minutes until warm and frothy. If you have a milk frother, you can use that to make it even frothier! Combine this with coffee or espresso to satisfy your personal coffee/latte ratio. Haha.

This is my coffee central. I like to use my french press to make rich coffee for recipes like this.
