It’s almost fall and this CopyCat Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte Recipe is going to save you $$’s this fall. I am totally getting in fall mode this week. I am enjoying all the flavors of fall. After sharing the CopyCat Pumpkin Scones Recipe yesterday that the hubby made me, I needed my Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte Fix! Knowing I was not going to be able to purchase a Starbucks Pumpkin Latte until next week, my only option was to have the hubby create me a CopyCat version at home. It was a perfect evening… like a dream, ha ha. I enjoyed a CopyCat Pumpkin Scone with my yummy Pumpkin Spice Latte. I know it sounds like pumpkin overload but, I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Is the pumpkin spice syrup the one sold on the Starbucks website? I was looking for a copycat recipe that maybe didn’t use there syrup since I read a few things on the ingredients of their actual drink and I was kind of disgusted.
In her recipe, she shows you how to make your own pumpkin syrup. I’m going to try this and avoid all the crap (plus get REAL pumpkin) in a PSL! Thanks!
Thanks for the recipe! So excited to try!!! How long will the pumpkin syrup last in the fridge?
Yum. Pinning now. Thanks!
I just love this Latte! Thank you so much for sharing this awesome post with Full Plate Thursday and hope you are having a fantastic weekend!
Come Back Soon,

Delicious pumpkin latte, this is my do list,thanks for sharing with Hearth and Soul blog hop. pinning.
I made a half recipe of the syrup to make sure we like it. It is very thick and I am currently waiting for it to strain. It may be that the simmer time should have been reduced because the ingredients were reduced. The flavor is good but it became too thick.
Yum! I found this amazing ( and soon to be popular in my home ) recipe over @ http://affimity.com/#/sharedPost/6/8362. I am very excited! I spend way too much money every fall through winter at Starbucks buying my favorite seasonal treat – the pumpkin spice latte. My wallet and my stomach both thank you very much!
How many servings is this?
Thank you for sharing!
So, every time i order one of these from starbucks i’m consuming 1.5 cups of sugar?
Is there a way to cut down on the sugar? Possibly use Stevia instead?
