Pumpkin Spice Syrup

It’s NOVEMBER, you guys!

There is no end to the excitement over here! 

I’m just so excited for the holiday season and all of the warmth and good cheer that go along with it.

And the food. Specifically, the desserts. And the beverages. Give me some eggnog with my figgy pudding. 

Actually, I’ll just take the eggnog, but I won’t leave until I get some. 

Anyway, it’s been raining for ages today, not that dainty rain, I’m talking downpour-can’t-see-through-it-build-an-Ark-quick-please kinda rain. Which requires a special beverage. Sadly, this particular one does not involve eggnog. But it involves pumpkin and cloves and caffeine and all sorts of goodness so it gets a free pass.

In a mug mix: 

2-3 Tablespoons syrup (The recipe for the spiced syrup is from A Beautiful Mess.)

1/3 cup milk, heated and foamed with a wisk or an Aerolatte

2/3 cup STRONG brewed coffee  (or up the milk and use a shot of espresso if you have an espresso machine)

Cinnamon to top

Drink, then repeat. And in two hours, repeat again 😉
