Caramel Pumpkin Latte

 I am wild about fall-inspired beverages, and when I first saw this yummy combination, I made it the same day! (I have a tendency to do that=).

Thanks to Suzanne at Simply Suzanne's at Home who linked this yummy drink up at our Weekend Potluck linky party.  If you've never joined us, I do hope you'll come back on Fridays, and take part....if you don't have a blog to link up, just check out the amazing YUM you can find here every Friday...extending through the weekend. 

Please take time to visit Suzanne's lovely blog.  She is a great decorator and has some awesome and special recipes too.   

I changed up the original recipe just a little because I REALLY! like my drinks to be creamy and sweet.  I also added the name LATTE, so you would know it's a warm drink. 

You can adjust it to your liking also.  I am sharing the original recipe and some additional options. 

This is a delicious way to begin, or end, your day.  

Happy Sipping!!!!
