  • 2-4 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 & 1/4 tablespoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin spice blend* (plus more for serving)
  • 1/2 cup dark roast/strong coffee (a strong coffee will balance the sweetness well)

    Jelica I love this idea. We don’t have ready-made pumpkin puree so I’d have to make that and the pumpkin spices I’d have to make that oo, but I so want to try this awesome beverage.
