Pumpkin Spice Latte at Home

SWEATER WEATHER!

Okay, maybe not quite yet here… but still. We are closing in on the end of summer and ushering in a new season. Like most of you, I absolutely love fall… especially in Ohio. The mornings are crisp and the afternoon sun still gives us a glimpse of the season we’ve left behind.

Not to mention, decorating for fall and pumpkin spice EVERYTHING! While I don’t jump on the pumpkin spice flavored cereal, I do love a little pumpkin spice with my cup of Joe.

If you’re like me and see that your PSL is starting to taste like inflation, this recipe is perfect for you. Made with my favorite coffee brand, Don Francisco’s and mixed with some ingredients you most likely have at home or can grab them easily at the grocery store.
