PSA: I must have a Pumpkin Spiced Latte!

[bokelley]

So I just got my first one, I am lovin it!! They didn't have skinny, but they were able to make it with skim milk, and no whip cream.

I may have a new addiction!!

Aren't they just fabulous? You should really try it with whipped cream and live a little I was in Target the other night and with my reciept printed out a $2.00 off coupon for a Starbuck's Pumpkin Spice Latte! It must've been my lucky night!

I too am obsessed with the pumpkin latte, though I do ask for only one pump cause sometimes it is too sweet.

I was so excited for it this year I asked them way back in July when it was coming out to make sure I had one the day it was available... Sept. 1

Gingerbread and Eggnog lattes are high on my list too...

Iagree with both of those and I love peppermint mocha!

Okay since everyone on this site caused this obsession. I decided I was going to try and find a recipe instead of spending money at Starbucks all the time. This is the best one I have found and I did make some minor adjustments( in orange). It doesn't taste just like it, but it is close and for the little cost it is worth it to me!! I got this recipe from Allrecipes.com
INGREDIENTS Make 3 large coffee mugs

• 3 cups hot whole milk **I USED LESS** 2 1/4 cups 2% milk**
• 4 teaspoons white sugar ** I USED SPLENDA**
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice ** I USED MORE, I LIKE IT SPICY**
• 6 ounces double-strength brewed coffee ** MADE MORE**
• 3 tablespoons sweetened whipped cream ** USED LITE FROM A CAN**
• 3 pinches pumpkin pie spice

Combine the hot milk( boiled mine on the stove), sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice in a blender; blend until frothy. Pour the mixture into 3 coffee mugs to about 2/3 full. Pour 2 ounces coffee into each mug. Garnish each mug with whipped topping and pumpkin pie spice.

Yum! I think DH will probably be experimenting with this now - anything to play with the espresso maker we got as a wedding gift. Yum, yum, yum! Thanks for looking that up! Because I am prego I've been going to SBX and asking for a NF Steamer with 1 pump hazelnut and 1 pump Pumpkin Spice syrup (or sometimes only one of them). I try to improvise, but it just isn't quite the same.
