When you think of fall coffee drinks, the first thing that probably comes to mind is anything with pumpkin in it. However, one of my favorite staples of the fall are any recipes with apples.
This recipe may seem strange at first glance, but once you brew it you’ll discover that this delicious spiced drink tastes like fall in a cup.
Apple Pie Syrup
Before you can make your actual latte, the first thing you need to do is make your Apple Pie Syrup. This syrup is easy to make and will stay in your fridge for 2-3 weeks after you make it. You can use this syrup in other drinks as well aside from lattes, though that’s my personal favorite way to incorporate it.
Ingredients
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup apple cider
- ½ cup water
- 1 cinnamon stick
- ¼ teaspoon allspice
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
Directions:
- Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and strain into an airtight container to remove the cinnamon stick.
- Refrigerate until fully chilled.
- Use in your favorite drinks!
