I was scrolling though my Instagram feed a few days ago and all I saw was people posting photos with their Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Lattes in perfect christmas-y cups. I thought I should head to Starbucks and grab one too (the power of social media is real), then I thought, why don’t I just make it at home?! Well, I did and let me just say, I don’t think i’ll be going to Starbucks for a pumpkin spice latte again because homemade is so much better.

To start off, I used organic ingredients and no pumpkin chai syrups. I used whole organic milk, organic pumpkin puree and mixed my own spices so I could control the sweetness and sugar. The Zulay milk frother is the final touch to give it that coffee shop feel. Click here to purchase your own milk frother and I have a 10% off code for you - WHISKNWHIP10.
