Pumpkin Spice season is back at Starbucks just in case you haven’t heard! I’m going to be drinking as many pumpkin cold brews as I can in the next month and trying the new Apple Crisp Macchiatos.
You do not need to go out and buy a can of pumpkin puree to make your own pumpkin spice syrup. All you need is the pumpkin spice seasoning, sugar, and water.Water and sugar are the two basic ingredients to make simple syrup at home. After that, you can add whatever seasonings or flavors you like to it. Store the syrups in mason jars or bottles.
I know it’s easy to purchase a bottle of flavored syrup at a store or on Amazon. I did try the Torani Pumpkin Spice syrup and I wasn’t a fan, so I made my own. Plus those syrups have natural flavorings in them which isn’t the best for you anyway. This syrup only has three ingredients: water, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. That’s it! So easy and you know me, I love easy recipes.
Add this syrup to your lattes in the morning!
What Ingredients do I need?
In this section, you can find substitutes or suggestions for certain ingredients. I also will try and list out what the ingredients’ purpose is for.

Notes
I like to measure out my syrup using teaspoons because somewhere on a video I saw a barista was saying 1/2 pump was about 1 tsp of syrup.
1 tsp of syrup is 1 point (all 3 myWW plans)
I have not tried making this with sugar substitutes.

Hi! I live in Australia, where we don’t have a pumpkin spice tradition and no canned pumpkin etc in supermarkets, and as I wasn’t keep on cooking and puréing my own pumpkin for a syrup this was just what I was looking for.
The end of your recipe said you haven’t tried this with sugar substitutes; I just made it with a monk fruit/erythritol organic sugar replacement and it’s turned out great! (Okay, it’s still cooling but it’s thick, syrupy, and delicious.)

I found, made, and used this recipe over this past year’s Christmas break. Very easy, and I like that it didn’t call for the canned pumpkin, half and half, sweetened condensed milk, and all that other randomness I found while searching for an easy way to use up the FIVE bottles of pumpkin pie spice I have! BTW, you forgot to mention the vanilla extra in the instructions! 🙂 Thanks for posting. A definite keeper!
