There’s something especially satisfying about making a Pumpkin Spiced Latte at home. It’s easy, simple, and genuinely delicious—plus you can adjust the sweetness and spice exactly how you like it.

I started making my own version after realizing how much better it tastes with real pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. No syrups, no mystery ingredients—just familiar flavors blended with espresso and warm milk. It’s the kind of recipe that becomes a fall ritual, especially on those cool, quiet mornings.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee or settling in with a book, this latte delivers all the cozy vibes without leaving your kitchen. Once you try it homemade, the coffee shop version doesn’t quite measure up.
