DIY Hot Starbucks Drinks
|
|
As much as I love a visit to a coffee shop, I don’t always love the price tags that come along with them. Plus I often find, specialty coffee house drinks are too sweet for me, so recreating them home becomes a #winwin (saves money + puts me in charge of all the ingredients).
Here are simple remakes of 4 delicious hot Starbucks drinks; Pumpkin Spice Latte, Chai Tea Latte, Salted Caramel Latte, + Mocha Latte.

A personal favorite of mine, is the famous #PSL, also known as a Pumpkin Spice Latte.
This DIY version is so easy to make and can easily be scaled up if you are sharing with some friends or family.

This Salted Caramel Latte definitely feels decadent and delicious, especially with a bit of whipped cream and extra caramel over the top.
If you are looking for a super easy, clean recipe for caramel (that happens to be vegan) this is the recipe to use. I used it to make my latte and can not believe how simple it was.
