When Starbucks officially rolled out their seasonal fall drinks, an IC patient had been suffering from severe coffee envy. There are no words to describe just how much her taste buds had been begging for a pumpkin spice latte. She knew she would never make it through the entire season without something to satisfy her craving, so she took matters into her own hands and came up with this scrumptious recipe. Although this drink doesn’t taste so much like a latte, it’s absolutely delicious and it certainly hits the spot in those moments when all you want is a hot, festive beverage. So grab a blanket, snuggle up on a cool Saturday morning and say hello to the season with this amazingly caramely, pumpkiny drink that will remind you of Grandma’s homemade pumpkin pie.

Caramel Pumpkin “Latte”
Yield: 1 8oz. beverage
Ingredients:
1 C. milk (I used skim but anything will work)
3 Tbsp. canned pumpkin (without problem ingredients)
3 Tbsp. caramel plus extra for drizzling (without problem ingredients)
whipped cream for topping (without problem ingredients)
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, heat the milk on medium heat until warm. Stir occasionally to keep it from burning.
2. Add in the pumpkin and whisk until there are no clumps.
3. Once the pumpkin is smooth, add the caramel and stir until everything is well mixed and the drink appears creamy.
4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and transfer the beverage into your favorite mug or cup.
5. Top with whipped cream and drizzled caramel.
Drink up!
