The moment Fall hits, we (like many) have rushed to our local coffee house, gotten in line and ordered a Pumpkin Latte. Since we love it so much, we took it upon ourselves to try making it at home. That’s how we come to this easy latte recipe. We’re sure you have almost, if not everything, you need at home right now. It really doesn’t take much.

For some extra fun, take a peek at maché magazine‘s pumpkin latte template download and decorate your drink using an adorable pumpkin cut out. Don’t stop at the drink, you could even use this to decorate a cake. Gain access to the free download by clicking here: Pumpkin Template To see the whole Fall issue from the magazine, click here.

I love coffee art! I had no idea there were templets out there to make me look way fancier than I am
Yay, I found another homemade Starbucks coffee drink recipe! I must make this! Thanks for sharing
This sounds so good right now! I love your photos.
I love that you use actual pumpkin instead of just spices – it always bothers me when “Pumpkin Spiced” drinks are pumpkin-free. Just because a certain combination of spices goes well with pumpkin doesn’t mean it tastes anything like pumpkin!
I wonder if this would be good in hot chocolate? I don’t like coffee.
maybe chai tea?
That would be lovely – I bet hot chocolate would be a nice touch, too!
I don’t drink coffee either (or caffeinated teas). Do you think this would be good without the coffee, just with the milk, pumpkin and spices, or would it need something else?
Hi Megan — Hmm, not sure. It really might be a it weak? Would love to hear if you try it , though! The pumpkin flavor is really wonderful.
This is the best recipe for pumpkin spice latte tastes better than the one famous cafe, recipe tried it is sensational, natural ingredients, perfect for cool days and a number of spectacular. I recommend!
Love latte. Will try when I return home from Az as it is much cooler there. Can not wait.
I did not see the headnotes for the pumpkin spice mix! Did I miss something??
Good catch. We updated the recipe and the headnote was stripped. Just fixed it!
I made this yesterday for my afternoon snack, what a great drink. Easy to make and tastes wonderful.
Yay! SO happy you loved it!
that coffee looks so good, need a few ingredients but am looking forward to trying this ; )
great!
I wonder if Pumpkin Pie Spieces would work. It’s a little jar I just bought. Ill try it tomorrow but can’t compare it to the real recipe :/
Hi there! Pumpkin Pie Spices will work — they are similar (if not the same) to pumpkin spice blend.
Could I use 1/2 cup espresso in place of coffee?
Yep!
