Hessian Coffee Pumpkin Spiced Latte
Here's how to make your own Hessian Coffee Pumpkin Spiced Latte. It's a warming autumn favourite that brings together freshly pulled espresso, velvety steamed milk and real pumpkin. We spice it with a blend of 1883 Pumpkin Spice Syrup. The result is a cosy, comforting cup for crisp mornings and darker evenings.
Pumpkin spiced latte topped with whipped cream and cinnamon, made with 1883 syrups
Ingredients:
- 2 oz (60 ml) espresso, a double shot made with our Hessian Coffee Beans. This gives a rich, bold base.
- ½ oz (15 ml) 1883 Pumpkin Spice Syrup, for warm, ginger spice.
- 2 tbsp pumpkin purée, for genuine pumpkin flavour and a silky body.
- 8 oz (240 ml) whole milk, or oat milk for a dairy-free option. This gives a creamy, velvety finish.
- Whipped cream (optional, for topping).
- Ground cinnamon or nutmeg (optional, for garnish).
Instructions:
- Build the Pumpkin Base: Add the pumpkin purée to your cup with the 1883 Pumpkin Spice Syrup. Stir until smooth. This spiced pumpkin blend is the secret heart of your latte.
- Pull the Espresso: Brew a double shot of espresso directly over the pumpkin base. Stir well so the heat of the coffee melts everything together and releases the spices.
- Steam the Milk: Steam your milk to around 60–65°C until it's glossy with a fine microfoam. Avoid overheating it, because that dulls the sweetness of the milk and the syrups.
- Pour and Combine: Pour the steamed milk into the cup, holding back the foam with a spoon at first. Then finish with a layer of foam on top.
- Garnish: Top with a swirl of whipped cream and a light dusting of cinnamon or nutmeg. These optional touches look beautiful and add an extra aromatic lift to every sip.
Make It Your Own:
- Iced Pumpkin Spiced Latte: Stir the pumpkin base and espresso together, pour over ice and top with cold milk. It's a great option for milder autumn days.
- Salted Caramel Twist: Add 1883 Salted Caramel Syrup for a richer, more indulgent cup.
- Chai Pumpkin Latte: Replace the espresso with steamed milk and add a dash of 1883 Chai Tea Syrup for a caffeine-light alternative.
- Café Tip: Pre-mix a batch of the pumpkin and syrup base at the start of service, and keep it chilled for up to 3 days. Fit your bottles with an 1883 Syrup Pump for consistent portions and faster serves.
