Hey hey hey! Happy Tuesday!
This week is already starting to be one of those ‘where the heck did this week go?!’ weeks. It’s only Tuesday, and I feel like time is going by QUICK! They say life after the baby will be different. Longer days, that’s for sure.
My morning routine has slightly changed ever since our little one joined us. Instead of having a big breakfast, I now have to sneak in to have breakfast so my choices for breakfast will be something quick, easy to digest, and filling. However, there’s something I can’t miss these days. Pumpkin Spice Latte.
It’s time for PSL, yo!
And even better because you can create this at home. Here’s a copycat version of Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice Latte. It’s delicious, creamy, and caffeinated. So, let’s cheer for THE BEST HOMEMADE PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE.
The Ingredients.
You only need 5 ingredients to make this pumpkin spice latte and they’re now a new staple at my household.
