Notes
- Use Quality Coffee: Use freshly brewed espresso from an espresso machine or your strongest coffee blend for the best results. It’s the key to balancing the sweetness and spice of your PSL.
- Choose a Good Sweetener: Swap the sugar for maple syrup, brown sugar, or even honey to give your drink a more nuanced, complex sweetness. You can also use a zero-calorie sweetener if you prefer.
- Add Full-Fat Milk: It’s key to give you the creamiest Starbucks pumpkin spice latte. You can also use rich, dairy-free alternatives like coconut milk, almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk.
- Froth the Milk: Do this if you have a milk frother or immersion blender! It creates a foaming, luxurious texture that levels up your homemade PSL.
- Make a Big Batch of Sauce In Advance and Freeze: This way, you'll only need to brew coffee and steam the milk to whip up a fresh cup of pumpkin spice latte whenever you crave one!
