Autumn is almost here and we can’t wait to get our hands on a Pumpkin Spice Latte.
Call us basic, but the tasty drink has become a must-have as the days grow colder.
The alternative to a cuppa is the perfect beverage for feeling cosy.
Luckily, while we wait for it to be back in coffee shops, Tesco has the perfect alternative – and it’s only 62p per portion!
You can make it at home using the supermarket’s tasty recipe.

Top tip:
If you have a coffee machine, use two shots of espresso to make the latte.
If not, use an instant espresso coffee or your usual cafetière.
You will need 50ml strong coffee made from about 1 tbsp ground coffee.
Yum!
We can’t wait to give this recipe a try.
Summer may be over, but sipping on this while watching scary Halloween films is just what we want to do.
