Ingredients

Apple Spice Syrup

  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon apple pie spice*

Apple Spice Latte

  • 1 cup coffee
  • 4 tablespoons apple spice syrup
  • 1/4 cup milk/cream/half n half

Optional toppings

  • Whipped cream
  • Additional apple pie spice

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan add the apple juice, water, light brown sugar and apple pie spice. Whisk to combine.
  • Bring mixture to a simmer while stirring occasionally. Allow to simmer about 5-7 minutes until the amount has reduced to about half. The syrup will be thicker and will thicken more as it cools.
  • Once the syrup is cooled slightly you can pour into a jar for storage. Can store in air tight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 weeks. Just shake before use. Can also re-heat before adding to the coffee.
  • Prepare your coffee.
  • Pour the 4 tablespoons of apple spice syrup and the milk or cream into the hot coffee. Stir to combine. Serve warm.

Notes

  • If you don't have apple pie spice on hand you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon plus 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice, and dash ground cloves or ginger.
  • The apple spice syrup recipe makes about 1-1 and 1/4 cup of syrup. Store in the refrigerator in a jar or other air tight container. I prefer my lattes with 4 tablespoons of the syrup if you want a bolder spice flavor to your coffee you can increase the amount that you use.
  • You can also sub apple cider in the recipe, but the spice flavor is much more pronounced than when using apple juice.
