Tips:
- Use real pumpkin puree for a richer, natural flavor.
- Adjust the sweetness with maple syrup, honey, or your favorite unrefined sugar.
- Froth the milk for that coffee shop feel — almond or oat milk works best.
- Add a pinch of salt to bring out the warm spices.
- Make the pumpkin base ahead for quicker lattes during the week.
