You can enjoy your favorite holiday drink at home. All you do is brew up your regular or decaffeinated coffee. To make iced, you put the coffee in the fridge to cool and use over ice, or use hot. You can also use instant coffee if you like. Add milk, a splash of cream (or half and half) or keep it black (whatever your preference is). Use PUMPKIN PIE SPICE that you have in your cupboard (usually it is used in pumpkin pies or pumpkin bread), and just use a couple dashes. Add a spoonful of Splenda and WALA...you have pumpkin pie coffee!
A Sbux Tall Pumpkin Pie Latte is around what $2.50 (I could be wrong on the exact price) X 5 days a week = TOO MUCH $! Plus at 80-100 calories per ounce of syrup...although I DO enjoy my Starbucks drinks from time to time.
One $4 jar of pumpkin pie spice lasts all season and through several pumpkin pies, pumpkin breads and coffees! I would skip the Trader Joe's brand, they add lemon and it's a bit too "lemon-y" for me.
If you do not own Pumpkin Pie Spice. you can sprinkle some Splenda, Cinnamon, Cloves (optional) and Nutmeg.
