Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte

In just 10 minutes you can welcome in the Fall months with an abundance of delicious homemade Pumpkin Spice Lattes

I'm going to be honest, I do not know a single person who does not love a pumpkin spice latte. One of my favorite celebrities named their three pets "Pumpkin" "Spice" and "Latte" after this drink and my brother who never drinks coffee's picks one of these up five days a week whenever they come back into season.

Technically, it is not pumpkin spice latte season, but for me any time of the year is PSL time. I am from Raleigh, where it is humind until late October and starts back in early March. So I am much too familiar with getting excited for the new season by putting on my boots and a nice sweater and heading down to Starbucks the day they come out to pick one up just to look at the thermostat and realize it's 80 degrees.

This June, I can not wait three more months. I need it now!
