Why You’ll Love This
When I first shared this pumpkin spice latte recipe back in 2010, the prices at Starbucks were half as much as what they are now. I just can’t bring myself to spend that kind of money on a cup of coffee, so I make it myself whenever I get a craving for a cozy warm drink.
- Cheaper than Starbucks
- You don’t need to leave your house to enjoy this!
- Easy to make.
