DIY Starbucks Pumpkin Sauce and Pumpkin Spice Latte

This week’s Sunday Funday is all about the Halloween drinks.  I took a slightly different track and went with a great seasonal drink: the infamous Pumpkin Spice Latte!

I decided to make a homemade pumpkin spice coffee creamer (pumpkin sauce if you’re a Starbucks aficionado) and my own Pumpkin Spice Latte!



This is the perfect way to use up small amounts of leftover canned pumpkin plus way less expensive than getting coffee out!  I just love the flavor and ease of this recipe!
