The Perfect Fall Flavor Combination
Pumpkin spice may get all the attention in the fall, but maple is the flavor that takes this latte to the next level.
Pumpkin
Real pumpkin puree gives the latte a creamy texture and adds the classic pumpkin flavor that makes this drink feel like fall.
Pumpkin Pie Spice
A touch of pumpkin pie spice adds warm notes of cinnamon and other classic fall spices without overpowering the pumpkin or maple.
Maple
Lakanto Maple Syrup adds rich, unmistakable maple flavor that rounds out the pumpkin and spices. It's especially delicious in the cold foam, where the maple flavor really shines.
Together, pumpkin, warm spices, and maple create a cozy, balanced latte that's perfect for fall.
Tips for the Best Pumpkin Spice Latte
A few simple tips can help you make the perfect homemade latte.
Use Strong Coffee
If you don't have an espresso machine, strong brewed coffee works perfectly. Choose a bold coffee that can stand up to the pumpkin, spice, and maple flavors.
Mix the Pumpkin Well
Whisk the pumpkin puree, Lakanto Maple Syrup, and pumpkin pie spice into the espresso while it's hot. This helps everything blend together smoothly.
Don't Skip the Cold Foam
The maple cold foam is what makes this latte extra special. Whip the heavy cream, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice until thick enough to spoon over the latte.
Serve Immediately
For the best texture, add the cold foam right before serving and finish with a light dusting of pumpkin pie spice.
