Quick Recipe « Quick Pumpkin Spice Latte

This is a great recipe for the holidays; it tastes great and it feels like fall when you drink it. It is similar to the Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Latte, but I personally like this better. Top with whipped cream and pumpkin pie spice.

Ingredients

• 1 cup milk, divided
• 1 tablespoon white sugar, or more to taste
• 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup brewed espresso

Cooking Directions

1. Whisk 1/2 cup milk, sugar, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract in a small saucepan over low heat. Simmer for 5 minutes. Whisk in remaining 1/2 cup milk.
2. Pour milk mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove pulp. Return milk mixture to saucepan and simmer, whisking, 2 minutes. Add espresso and whisk until foamy, 1 minute.
