1can coconut milk13.5oz - I like to use light coconut milk
1cupbrown sugar
1tbsppumpkin pie spice
1/4tspsalt
1tspvanilla bean paste(optional)
Instructions
Add the can of coconut milk to a sauce pan. Heat the coconut milk over medium heat whisking occasionally until the solids have melted
Add the brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, salt and vanilla to the pot and whisk to combine. Heat over medium-high heat until the mixture boils (careful because it can quickly boil over the pot)
Reduce to a simmer and simmer the mixture uncovered whisking frequently for 15 minutes. The mixture will reduce to a syrupy consistency - if you use full fat coconut milk it will be thicker, if you use light coconut milk it will be thinner
Remove the pot from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool completely and transfer to an airtight container light a glass jar with a lid for storage. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Use 1-2 tbsp of the syrup in your favorite fall beverages!
Notes
You can use condensed milk in place of coconut milk but cut the amount of sugar in half to 1/2 cup
Drink Recipes:
Pumpkin Spice Latte:
1 tbsp pumpkin spice latte syrup
1/2 cup milk of choice
2 shots of espresso
Steam milk with 1 tbsp latte syrup. Brew 2 shots of espresso and pour steamed sweetened milk over the espresso. If you like it extra sweet, mix an extra tablespoon of the syrup in with the espresso
Pumpkin Spice Cold Foam Cold Brew:
2 tbsp pumpkin spice latte syrup
1/4 cup milk of choice – I like to use 1 tbsp heavy cream and 3 tbsp half and half
1 cup cold brew coffee – I use my homemade cold brew recipe
Ice
Use a hand frother to mix together latte syrup and milk. Pour cold brew into a glass with lots of ice and slowly pour cold foam over top.
