    About Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte

    There is nothing like a tall glass of chilled coffee on a cozy evening when you just want to sit and relax with your family. This Starbucks Copycat Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte is my favorite when it comes to Fall and Winter.

    Easy, quick, and unique, this one will surely ‘WOW’ you with its fall flavors.

    As soon as the fall sets in, I make a big batch of my Homemade Pumpkin Puree and Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix and use them in my recipes in every possible way that I can. From soups to curries to desserts, I add them to everything I cook.

    Of all the recipes that I make using pumpkin, this Starbucks copycat Homemade Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte Recipe is made on repeat as my husband and I are crazy about its taste.

    It has a perfect strong flavor of coffee with a hint of pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Sweetened with maple syrup and some whipped cream on top, this one is perfect to serve to your guests too.

    Although you can grab a glass of this goodness at Starbucks, I have so many reasons why you should make it home.

    1. Homemade is less sugary and low in calories.
    2. You can customize it as per your taste. Use whichever milk you like, adjust the sweetness as per your taste, and use any coffee instead of espresso if you don’t have an espresso machine.
    3. It is much much economical to make at home.
    4. It gets ready in under 5 minutes.

    So get going and make yourself a tall glass of this refreshing Iced Pumpkin Latte and thank me later.

    Ingredients

    Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte Ingredients.

    Espresso – At Starbucks, they make this iced PSL recipe using shots of espresso but you can use strongly brewed coffee too. Use your Moca Pot, French Press, South Indian Filter, or a regular brew machine to brew the coffee.

    Cold Brew Coffee, Nespresso, or Aeropress coffee also works great in this recipe.

    Milk – I like to use whole milk (full-fat milk) for a rich and creamy texture but you can use whichever milk you want to. Skim milk or low-fat milk also works great.

    To make a vegan pumpkin spice latte drink, use plant-based milk (non-dairy milk) like oat milk, soy milk, almond milk, coconut milk, etc.

    Pumpkin Puree – Use canned or try my homemade Pumpkin Puree recipe.

    Pumpkin Pie Spice Blend – You can either use the store-bought one or try my homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice recipe.

    Maple Syrup – Adjust the quantity according to your taste. Other sweeteners like white sugar, brown sugar, honey, or sugar-free options like stevia or monk fruit also work great.

    Whipped Cream – Skip it if watching calories.

    How To Make Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte

    Add

    • 2 shots espresso (or ½ cup of extra-strong brewed coffee)
    • 1 cup chilled milk
    • 1 tablespoon pumpkin puree
    • ¼ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
    • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 2 teaspoon maple syrup

    to a blender.

    All the ingredients added to a blender.

    Blend on high speed until everything comes together and becomes frothy.

    Check for the sweetener and add more if needed.

    Frothy coffee.

    Add 6-8 ice cubes to each serving glass.

    Ice added to serving glass.

    Pour the coffee over ice.

    Top with whipped cream (optional) and sprinkle with a pinch of pumpkin pie spice. Serve immediately.

    Pro Tips By Neha

    For a stronger pumpkin taste, increase the quantity of pumpkin puree.

    You don’t have to wait for the espresso to cool down. Add it hot or cold, it’s up to you.

    Make this delicious drink for kids by simply skipping the coffee.

    To make a slushy latte, blend the ingredients with ice instead of pouring the coffee over the ice.

    Do not confuse pumpkin puree with pumpkin pie filling. They are generally right next to each other in the grocery store, but the pumpkin pie filling has a lot of added sugar and spices, and the pumpkin puree doesn’t. You want the plain pumpkin puree with no additives.

    Use leftover pumpkin puree to make drinks like Pumpkin Spice Horchata, Pumpkin Spice Milk, or Pumpkin Spice Martini.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I make an iced pumpkin latte recipe without pumpkin puree?

    Yes, you can make this iced latte without adding pumpkin puree to it. Just add all the other ingredients and blend well. You can also replace pumpkin puree with sweet potato puree or butternut squash puree if you wish to.

    How to make a hot pumpkin spice latte?

    Add milk and pumpkin puree to a saucepan and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the espresso, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and maple syrup. Pour the coffee into the cups, top with some whipped cream, and serve hot.

    How to make an iced pumpkin latte without a blender?

    You can easily make this delicious coffee drink without a blender. Here are some options.
    1. Use a milk frother to mix the ingredients.
    2. Add the ingredients to a tumbler. Close the lid and shake vigorously.
    3. Use an immersion blender to blend the ingredients.
    4. Use a wire whisk.

    Storage Suggestions

    You can store this iced coffee for 5-6 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container. The ingredients will separate when sitting for too long, so just stir them well before serving.
