- 1/2 cup (125 ml) of pure maple syrup
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) of unsweetened pumpkin puree

For the Pumpkin Spice Latte:

Preparation
- For the Pumpkin Spice Syrup: Whisk together all syrup ingredients in a medium pot over medium heat. Simmer for about 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until smooth and slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat. Once cool, pour leftovers into a jar and secure lid.
- Prepare the espresso or pick some up from a local coffee shop.
- Add milk into a small pot. Heat over medium and bring to a simmer. Immediately remove from heat. Froth the milk using a milk frother or a French press.
- Pour hot espresso into a mug. Top with all of the frothy milk. Add 3 to 4 teaspoons of the syrup, to taste, and gently stir to combine.
- Top with a dash of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice, and Coconut Whipped Cream, if desired. Serve immediately.
Tip: You can use it in regular coffee, too, or try stirring it into a bowl of hot oatmeal for a seasonal twist.
