Impress your friends with this Starbucks copycat pumpkin latte recipe, which tastes just like the pumpkin latte at the coffee shop, but is a lot less expensive! You can make it for less than 50 cents per cup instead of the $6-7 at the store! Try it today and get in the mood for fall! 😉
Starbucks Copycat Pumpkin Latte Recipe
1 cup milk (any % is fine or even 1/2 milk and 1/2 half and half)
2 Tbsp. pumpkin puree
1 Tbsp. sugar (white or brown)
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (or 1/8 tsp. cinnamon, tiny pinch nutmeg, tiny pinch cloves)
1/4 cup strong coffee or espresso
whipped cream
Add the milk, pumpkin, sugar, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice to a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring almost to a boil. (Or you can microwave it until very hot but not boiling.)
Remove from heat and add to a blender. Blend on high until the milk begins to froth, about 2 minutes. (A hand blender works great for this.)
Divide the milk mixture between two mugs. Add the coffee slowly down the side so you don’t disturb the milk froth. Add a squirt of whipped cream and top with a pinch of pumpkin pie spice and whipped cream. Serves 2. (Just double the recipe for each additional person you want to serve.)

Sounds yummy! Quick question what is the purpose of dividing the milk mixture between two mugs of it only serves one? That part has me a little confused. Love all your recipes BTW! Thanks!
Thanks for the heads up Amanda it is suppose to be serves 2
I just made this and am sipping it right now. SUPER YUMMY!!!! 🙂
If you make a batch of this will it stay good in the fridge?
It will stay fresh for as long as your milk will stay fresh. Go by the expiration date on your milk (and usually you can go 3-4 days past that date)
