Pumpkin Spice Latte ½ cup milk ½ cup coffee 3 tablespoons pumpkin purée 2 tablespoons agave nectar (more to sweeten) 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 teaspoon cinnamon ½ teaspoon nutmeg ½ teaspoon cloves Add pumpkin purée, milk, and agave nectar to a small pot over medium heat and whisk quickly for about 5 minutes. Add in pumpkin pie spices and vanilla, and continue to whisk. Your spices may not totally dissolve into the milk; if you prefer a smoother texture, use less of the spices, or add it them at the end.Once the milk is frothy and bubbling, add it to your mug. Pour in the coffee on top, and you’re good to go. Of course, there’s always the option to add whipped cream and more spices on top for an extra pumpkin-y drink. After all, we like the taste of pumpkin. With our version, you’ll get that true pumpkin taste without the syrups and sweeteners

I like this! Pumpkin lattes are super yummy, but I don't really like the idea of that fake syrupy stuff. Thanks, Sheila!

I'll bet this would also be good if you substituted tea for the coffee.

Made this today. It is really good, but 1/2 tsp of cloves is way too much for me, for one cup of coffee. I used honey instead of agave nectar, because that's what we have. Very nice and pumpkiny, and reddi-whip makes it even smoother.

Couldn't you just use pumpkin pie spice in place of all the spices?
