Notes
Tips:
If you want to make an iced latte and you prefer to make the coffee at home, brew a pot of coffee the day before you want to make your latte. Let the coffee cool down, then place it in the fridge. This will give you homemade iced coffee!
This is a great way to use leftover coffee. You can put it in the fridge as suggested above and make an iced latte, or warm up the coffee when you want to use it in this recipe.
Stirring your latte well is key, the ingredients will begin to separate otherwise. I prefer to use a small whisk
Freeze the leftover pumpkin puree in Tablespoon servings (using an ice tray or something similar) then simply pull one out when you feel like a pumpkin spice latte.
