About the Recipe
Nothing screams Autumn nowadays more than Pumpkin Spice, the flavour phenomenon has taken over in the last few years and it seems you can't go anywhere without seeing pumpkin spice versions of everything.
One of the most widespread sources of pumpkin is undoubtedly coffee, with every major chain now offering pumpkin inspired hot and cold beverages, but at £3-£5 a cup, it's not exactly cheap...
That's where our recipe for homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte gives you a much more affordable, and in our opinion, fun option to join the trendy coffee crew and enjoy this Autumnal delight.
You can go even more homemade by using our recipes for two of the key ingredients, Pumpkin Puree and Pumpkin Spice Mix - find the links in the ingredients section.
Enjoy!
