Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice

PSL For Life

(Featuring My Sister!)

After a little convincing, i.e. BEGGING, my sister has finally agreed to share her MAGICAL (seriously.) Pumpkin Spice syrup that will literally make you wish it was the morning just so that you can have your cup of coffee. Friends, it is THAT good. Also, it’s Gluten Free and Dairy Free which makes it unicorn syrup, you can write me a thank you note later!

Hey guys! Me again, Ashley Brooke’s sister Kyla, with more coffee goodness! I just so happen to be one of those people who is intolerant to a lot of the tasty things in life, but a firm believer that this minor road block should not deter anyone from getting to destination yum. A Starbucks’ PSL is one of my all time fave treats and we count down the days to it’s return every year in my household. With all of the rand-o ingredients in their Pumpkin Spice syrup, it is not “Kyla friendly” so I like to whip up my own here at home and share it with that cute sister of mine.

Hold on to your cinnamon friends, this is a good one!

This is the pumpkin I bought at the store. Make sure it is 100% pure pumpkin!

Once your syrup is cooled, grab your ABD mugs and froth up some milk (in my case coconut milk) and sip sip away!
