PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE
Pumpkin Spice Latte a Starbucks favorite worldwide was recently launched Indian Starbucks outlets. It is the best way to enjoy the flavor of pumpkin and coffee blended in magically with some aromatic spices and topped with delicately sweetened whipped cream. It can be served both hot or cold.
This scrumptious offering is available across all stores in India only in September and October. But with this easy pumpkin spice latte recipe you can enjoy this throughout the year.
A much healthier version of pumpkin spice latte can be prepared at home where one can go easy with both sugar and cream and also it will be free from artificial flavoring and preservatives. Prepare the pumpkin pie flavored sauce, refrigerate it and enjoy whenever you want.
I am personally not a big fan of whipped cream so just used some leftover cream prepared for my blueberry cake that is the reason the cream is slightly bluish.
