Get a quick energy boost and enjoy the flavours of Fall with this pumpkin spice latte. Use your favorite brand of coffee to make this drink even more special. Moreover, you can decide how strongly you brew the coffee as well. Also, you can play around with different types of milk alternatives such as almond, cashew or oat milk. You can also control your own sweetness level by changing the amounts of coconut sugar and honey that you add.
Moreover, you can get coconut cream by chilling a can of coconut milk in the fridge and scooping the thick part off of the top. This is the coconut cream. The coconut ice cream chills this drink, so there is no ice that will water down the flavour.
