  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make pumpkin latte? Prepare the products. To prepare it, you will need pumpkin puree. In order not to do it yourself, you can take a ready-made one, such is sold in departments with baby food. But I made the mashed potatoes myself. It's quick and easy.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Wash the pumpkin, cut a small piece. Puree will need a small amount, so one piece is enough. Peel the pumpkin from the skin. Cut into cubes. Next, you can use one of the ways to prepare mashed potatoes - boil in water, steam or bake.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    I baked a pumpkin in the oven. To do this, wrap the pumpkin pieces in foil and put them in a mold.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Bake the pumpkin for 45 minutes at 190 °C.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Chop the finished pumpkin - punch it with a blender, rub it through a sieve or just mash it with a fork.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Take a saucepan, pour 300 ml of milk into it. Add two tablespoons of pumpkin puree, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Mix it up.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Put a saucepan with milk on a small fire. Bring it to a boil, make the heating minimal and boil for 3-4 minutes. During this time, the spices will give all their flavor to the milk.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Make coffee in any way. You can use a turk, you can use any type of coffee maker, I cooked in a geyser.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    Heat the remaining 100 ml of milk to a temperature of 50-60 degrees. Milk of this temperature will be easier to beat. Beat the milk in any way - with a whisk, a cappuccino machine or a French press. You should get a lush foam. If you do not have such devices, then use whipped cream instead of milk.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10.

    Grab a tall latte glass. This coffee looks most beautiful in transparent glass - when it stands for a while, it will split into layers. Pour coffee into a glass. It should be one third of the total volume.

  11. Step 11:

    Step 11.

    Next, pour in the spicy milk. Top it up almost to the top, leaving room on top only for milk foam or cream.

  12. Step 12:

    Step 12.

    Spoon the milk foam on top. Serve immediately, the coffee should stay hot.

I'm not making this coffee for the first time - the taste of pumpkin is not felt at all, it, in combination with spices, gives only a spicy taste and aroma. Very tasty! The only remark is that chop the puree as best as possible, after the fork there are large pieces left.
