Ingredients

Scale

For the Syrup:

  • 2/3 cups of organic honey
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • 1/4 cup of pumpkin puree
  • 1 tsp pumpkin spice
  • 3 cinnamon sticks

For the Latte:

  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/3 cup of very strong coffee
  • 3 tsp of Tennessee Fire Jack Daniels Whiskey
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp of pumpkin spice syrup
  • Pumpkin spice for sprinkling over the foamy goodness

Instructions

For the Syrup:

  1. Combine the honey, water, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice and cinnamon sticks in a medium pot over medium heat. You want to make sure you don’t burn it, so stir and stir some more.
  2. After about 2-5 mins, your ingredients should come to a boil. When this happens reduce the heat and let it simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
  3. Remove the pot from the heat and let it cool down. Once it has cooled down, transfer it to a jar.

So now the fun part, your latte!

  1. Heat your milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. As your milk warms up, froth your milk either using a frother or by using a whisk.
  3. Now brew your strong coffee and pour it into your mug, pour the whiskey in and add the syrup. Stir it together.
  4. Use a large spoon to hold back the foam. Pour the milk into your mug.
  5. Before spooning the foam into your mug, stir up your coffee, milk, whiskey, and syrup once more.
  6. Spoon the foam on top, and sprinkle some pumpkin spice or cinnamon over it.
