Homemade Pumpkin Spice Coffee Syrup
Few things are as closely associated with fall as pumpkins. Pumpkin pie, pumpkin bars, pumpkin ice cream… and pumpkin spice coffees!
As soon as summer ends, many people run out to get a latte made with Starbucks pumpkin spice syrup.
But think how great it would be to make your own at home. This will save both time and money.
Now, I can’t promise this will make your coffee taste just like a true PSL. But you’ll still get a pumpkin syrup that will transform your morning cup of coffee into a special fall drink.
I recently made up a batch of this homemade pumpkin spice sauce, and we used it up within a week.
Now, we do have five kids, and they’re all teens and young adults. And they love coffee.
And while they were adding it to their morning coffee, I was enjoying it swirled into some coconut cream, which was also delicious.
So it was no surprise that I already needed to make another batch! Thankfully, it’s super easy to make.
