LUSCIOUS PUMPKIN LATTE

Ingredients: 

2 heaping tablespoons cooked or canned pumpkin 
2 cups milk or ¾ cup unsweetened condensed milk 
4 tablespoons vanilla syrup 
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
1 cup coffee, brewed strong or ¼ cup freshly brewed espresso 

Spice for dusting, optional

Directions: 
In a small saucepan, heat the milk with the pumpkin until it combines, then add vanilla syrup and cinnamon (or pumpkin spice.) Heat until steaming, stirring frequently.

Carefully pour into a blender and blend on high for 20 seconds, until it foams. Pour into a tall heat-proof glass, then add the espresso or coffee. Dust with cinnamon or pumpkin spice and serve immediately.

YIELD: 2 servings; recipe easily doubles
