Pumpkin Syrup

I LOVE Starbucks' Pumpkin Spice Steamers.
I've seen lots of copycat recipes for the lattes online,but none that I have tried have been right, maybe because I don't use coffee, the taste is more noticeably wrong. 
But this was perfect!!

Pumpkin Spice Syrup
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups white sugar
3 cinnamon sticks
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon pie spice
4 Tablespoons pumpkin puree

Combine in a small saucepan on medium heat.Cook 5 minutes, whisking constantly. Let cool and strain through a mesh strainer into your jar. Keep in refrigerator.

Use 4 tablespoons of syrup per cup of hot milk. Top with whipped cream and a pinch of nutmeg and cinnamon.
If you prefer lattes, just add coffee instead of the full cup of milk. I cant help you with the exact measurements of coffee/milk on that one, but use the same amount of syrup..

  1. So instead of "chocolate milk" or "hot chocolate" it's pumpkin milk or hot pumpkin? Bet it would be nice w/ some vanilla or cinnamon tea....
