Easy Healthy Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte

This will make one grande sized latte which contains 61 calories and 2
gr sugar and 2.25 grams of sugar alcohol (compared to Starbucks more
than 300 calories and nearly 50 grams of regular sugar!

2 oz double espresso shot
1 cup unsweetened almond vanilla milk
4 Tbsp pumpkin puree
1 Tbsp sugar free maple syrup
1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or your own mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg,
ginger, and clove)
1/8 tsp vanilla extract

NOTE: If you do not have an espresso maker, you can use 4 to 6 ounces of
very strong coffee.

When you have your coffee ready, add the pumpkin, spices, vanilla
extract, and maple syrup, to a mixing glass or blender and mix together.
When smooth, remove from blender and pour into mug.

Froth your almond milk using the frother on your espresso machine OR (if
you donÂ’t have an espresso machine) put your milk into a saucepan and
cook at medium heat until itÂ’s simmering. When it simmers, pour it into
the blender and blend on high until it gets frothy.

Pour milk into coffee mug carefully using a spoon to hold the froth back
and then using the spoon to place the froth on top of the drink.
