Ingredients

Instructions

In a mug, add the pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, sugar, and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth.
Brew two shots of espresso coffee and pour them into the mug, mixing until well combined.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until hot and steaming, about 3–4 minutes.
Pour the hot milk into the mug, stirring gently to blend the flavors.
Top with whipped cream and finish with a light dusting of pumpkin spice before serving.

Notes

Stir Everything Well: I like to mix the pumpkin, spice, sugar, and vanilla thoroughly so no spice clumps stay at the bottom.

Heat the Milk Gently: I warm the milk just until steaming; it keeps the flavor smooth and avoids any burnt taste.

Adjust to Taste: Sometimes I add a little extra sugar or spice at the end, depending on how cozy I want the flavor.

Finish with Style: A swirl of cream and a dusting of pumpkin spice always makes it feel café-worthy.
