Homemade Pumpkin Honey Latte: Clean and Easy to Make

It’s pumpkin season baby, check out how to make a Pumpkin Honey Latte! Am I the only one who finds it hard to come across recipes that sweeten drinks or desserts with just honey? It feels like every pumpkin latte is loaded with sugary syrups, and if you’re trying to stick to an animal-based diet, honey is the way to go for sweetening. Even when I do find recipes with honey, they often sneak in other sugars too. So, I’m thinking about starting a series where I share all the recipes I tweak to use only honey as the sweetener.

How to Make

For this pumpkin honey latte, I didn’t bother measuring everything perfectly because I’m not a fan of fussing over exact amounts. You can eyeball the ingredients too and adjust it to your taste—whether you want it sweeter or with more pumpkin flavor. The basics are simple: combine pumpkin puree, honey, milk, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice in a saucepan, and bring it to a simmer. Froth some heavy cream, pour it all over two shots of espresso, and finish it off with a dash of cinnamon.

This recipe makes enough for two Pumpkin Honey Lattes, because in my house, if one person is having something delicious, so does the other! 🙂

What Coffee We Use

We make our lattes at home using a Nespresso Vertuo machine and the double Dolce pods. I can’t say enough good things about it! Every pod we try turns out delicious, and we’re always enjoying café-quality coffee without leaving the house. Honestly, I don’t even feel like getting coffee from Starbucks or any coffee shop anymore—my Nespresso makes the best coffee right at home!

Do you have any delicious coffee recipes you make at home? I’m always looking to try something new! I love experimenting with flavors and tweaking recipes to make them healthier. Whether it’s a simple honey latte or a creative twist, I’d love to hear your favorites and give them a try. There’s nothing better than starting the day with a new coffee creation!
