Recipe for Spiced Pumpkin Cappuccino

One of our readers emailed to see if we had a good recipe for Pumpkin Spice Cappuccino. To be honest, we're still in summer Strawberry Daiquiri mode (now that summer has finally arrived), not pumpkins and fall harvest, but we did check through our archives and found this recipe we had printed many years ago from the internet.

We haven't actually tried the recipe but it sounds yummy so please let us know what you think.

Recipe for Pumpkin Spice Cappuccino (originally posted by Janaki at October 31, 2003)

1 cup canned solid-pack pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
6 cups of your favorite coffee, freshly brewed and at the strength you prefer
1 cup cream or whole milk
2 tblsp ground cinnamon
1/5 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 tblsp ground nutmeg
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar

In a large blender (if your blender isn't large enough you can make the recipe in stages) combine cream, pumpkin and spices. Mix thoroughly. Pour coffee into blender. Mix thoroughly again. Add sugars and mix until sugars are thoroughly dissolved. Continue to process until frothy. If necessary, reheat to desired warmth.

You can adjust the spices/sugar to your taste and sprinkle more cinnamon on top for visual appeal.

Enjoy!
