Useful tips for Pumpkin Spice Latte

Espresso is ideal here, but not everyone has it on-hand. Cold brew concentrate is just as good (use 1/2 of what the recipe calls for) and in a pinch just use strong coffee (double the amount and use less almond milk).

Lattes are served at Starbucks between 145 and 165 degrees fahrenheit (62 - 74 degrees celsius). By running the soup setting once we were able to get our pumpkin spice latte to 155 degrees F (68 C), by adding 1-2 min we got it up to 165 F (74 C).
