Ingredients
1 cup milk (oat or almond recommended)
2 shots espresso, brewed and slightly cooled
2 tbsp pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
1 tbsp maple syrup
0.5 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 cup ice cubes
Optional: whipped cream and extra spice for garnish
Instructions
Whisk the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice in a small saucepan over medium heat until fragrant.
Add the milk to the saucepan and stir continuously until the mixture is hot but not boiling.
Remove from heat and strain through a fine-mesh sieve for a silky texture if desired.
Fill a tall glass with fresh ice cubes.
Pour the cooled espresso shots over the ice.
Pour the spiced pumpkin milk over the espresso mixture.
Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice if desired.
Notes
Brew the espresso in advance to ensure it is cooled before pouring over ice to prevent dilution. Use a milk frother after heating the pumpkin milk mixture for a better foam texture. The pumpkin-maple mixture can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
