Instructions

  1. Brew the espresso or coffee: Prepare 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or brew 1 cup of strong coffee, then pour it into a large mug.
  2. Combine creamer with coffee: Warm 1/2 cup of pumpkin creamer, then pour it over the brewed coffee. Gently stir in 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, adjusting the sweetness and spice to your liking.

  • Adjust the maple syrup quantity based on your preferred sweetness level.
  • For a dairy-free option, use a plant-based creamer and whipped topping.
  • To make homemade pumpkin spice whipped cream, whip heavy cream with pumpkin pie spice and a touch of sugar until soft peaks form.
