🔥 To Make a Hot Pumpkin Cream Coffee (Warm Version)

If you’re craving a cozy hot version of this fall favorite, you can easily turn this cold brew recipe into a comforting warm drink!

You’ll Need:

• 1 cup freshly brewed hot coffee (medium roast or dark roast)

• 2 tablespoons milk (or cream of choice)

• 1 tablespoon pumpkin purée

• 1 tablespoon maple syrup or brown sugar

• ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Heat & Froth the Cream:
   In a small saucepan, warm the milk, pumpkin purée, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla over low heat. Whisk constantly until hot but not boiling.

2. Froth It Up:
   Use a handheld frother or whisk to create a thick, foamy pumpkin cream.

3. Assemble Your Drink:
   Pour your hot coffee into a mug, then gently spoon the pumpkin cream over top. Finish with a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon.

☕ Tip:
For an extra indulgent twist, add a drizzle of caramel or a dollop of whipped cream before serving.
