I have a confession to make: I had never had a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks until Saturday. Actually, I never buy anything from Starbucks. I just have better things to spend our hard-earned money on, like four kids! I have nothing against Starbucks — I just never think to go there. Their Pumpkin Spice Latte has always intrigued me, though, because I love pumpkin. Here is my version of a Pumpkin Spice Latte.
