19 SEP 2023 · Welcome back to the "Pumpkin Spice Latte" podcast, the ultimate hub for PSL enthusiasts. Today's episode is a special treat for all you DIYers out there. Have you ever wanted to become your own barista and whip up a Pumpkin Spice Latte that rivals Starbucks? Well, you're in luck, because today we're going through a step-by-step guide on how to make a delicious PSL right in the comfort of your own home.
Let's get into the step-by-step guide. First, you'll need a few ingredients: espresso or strong brewed coffee, milk (or a milk alternative), pumpkin puree, and a blend of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Here's how to put it all together:
Start by brewing your espresso or strong coffee.
In a separate saucepan, heat up your milk but don't let it boil. If you're using a milk alternative like almond or oat milk, that works too.
Add a spoonful of pumpkin puree to the milk and whisk it until it's well combined.
Sprinkle in your spices. A dash of cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, and a smidgen of cloves should do the trick.
Combine your spiced pumpkin milk mixture with your brewed espresso or coffee.
Give it a good stir, and voila! You've got yourself a homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte.
Now, for today's fun fact: Did you know you can easily make a vegan or low-calorie version of the PSL? For a vegan option, simply use a plant-based milk and make sure your pumpkin puree is animal-product free. For a low-calorie version, you can use a sugar substitute and opt for skim or low-fat milk. Customizing your PSL to fit your dietary needs has never been easier.

17 SEP 2023 · Welcome back to the "Pumpkin Spice Latte" podcast, the show that dives deep into the world of everyone's favorite—or not so favorite—fall beverage. Today, we're exploring a different angle: the dark side of the Pumpkin Spice Latte. Yes, you heard that right. While the PSL has legions of fans, it's also faced its share of criticisms and controversies. So let's dig in and find out what the fuss is all about.
First, let's talk about the backlash. The Pumpkin Spice Latte has been criticized for a variety of reasons, ranging from its sugar content to its cultural impact. Some health experts have raised concerns about the high sugar and calorie content, especially in the larger sizes. Then there's the environmental angle, with critics pointing out the waste generated by the seasonal surge in disposable coffee cups. And let's not forget the cultural criticisms. The PSL has been called out as a symbol of "basic" culture, often in a way that's dismissive or even derogatory, particularly towards young women who are its main enthusiasts. Whether you agree with these criticisms or not, it's clear that the PSL isn't just a drink; it's a cultural lightning rod.
Now, for today's fun fact: Did you know that a Venti-sized Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks has over 400 calories? That's right, it's almost a meal in itself, and that's before you add any whipped cream or extra syrups. So if you're watching your calorie intake, you might want to consider opting for a smaller size or customizing your drink to make it a bit lighter.

16 SEP 2023 · Welcome back to the "Pumpkin Spice Latte" podcast, where we explore every facet of this beloved fall beverage. Today's episode is all about the global invasion of the Pumpkin Spice Latte. That's right, the PSL craze isn't just an American phenomenon; it has captured hearts and taste buds around the world. So let's take a trip across the globe and see how different cultures have embraced this iconic drink.
First up, cultural adaptations. The Pumpkin Spice Latte has found its way into various countries, and it's fascinating to see how it's been adapted to suit local tastes. In Japan, for instance, you might find a matcha-infused Pumpkin Spice Latte, blending the earthy flavors of green tea with the traditional spices. In parts of Europe, the PSL might be less sweet to cater to local preferences for less sugary beverages. And in Australia, where it's actually spring when the PSL season hits, some cafes offer an iced version to help you cool down while still enjoying those familiar autumnal spices.
Now, for today's fun fact: In some places, the Pumpkin Spice Latte goes by a different name. It's often called the "Autumn Latte" to better capture the essence of the season, especially in countries where pumpkin pie isn't a traditional dish. So if you're traveling and in need of your PSL fix, remember to look for its local alias.

15 SEP 2023 · Welcome back to the "Pumpkin Spice Latte" podcast, your go-to source for everything PSL. Today, we're diving into the world of Pumpkin Spice Latte imitators. That's right, the PSL is so iconic that it has inspired a whole slew of knock-offs, some of which are surprisingly good, while others, well, let's just say they leave a lot to be desired. So if you've ever been curious about how other brands stack up to the original, this episode is for you.
Let's get into the good, the bad, and the ugly of Pumpkin Spice Latte knock-offs. First up, the good. Some coffee shops and even fast-food chains have managed to create their own versions of the PSL that come pretty close to the real deal. These often feature high-quality espresso, real pumpkin puree, and a blend of spices that give the original a run for its money. If you're looking for a PSL experience without the Starbucks price tag, some of these options might be worth exploring.
Now, the bad. There are some Pumpkin Spice Latte imitations out there that just miss the mark. Maybe the spice blend is off, or perhaps they skimp on quality ingredients, resulting in a drink that's more sugar than spice. These are the knock-offs that make you appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into the original PSL.
And then, there's the ugly. These are the Pumpkin Spice Latte attempts that make you wonder what the creators were thinking. Whether it's an overload of artificial flavors or a complete lack of anything resembling pumpkin or spice, these are the drinks that give PSL knock-offs a bad name.
Time for today's fun fact: Did you know that some people make Pumpkin Spice Lattes for their pets? That's right, there are recipes out there for pet-friendly PSLs, usually involving pumpkin puree and pet-safe spices. Of course, these versions don't contain any caffeine, but they do offer a way for your furry friends to join in on the PSL craze.

14 SEP 2023 · Welcome back to the "Pumpkin Spice Latte" podcast, the ultimate destination for PSL aficionados and curious minds alike. Today, we're going to delve into the science behind this iconic beverage. What makes it so irresistibly delicious? What are the ingredients that come together in that cup to create autumn in liquid form? Let's find out.
First up, Chemistry 101. Why does the Pumpkin Spice Latte taste so darn good? Well, it's not magic, although it might feel like it when you take that first sip. It's actually a carefully crafted blend of ingredients that hit all the right notes on your palate. The espresso provides the bitter base, which is balanced by the sweetness of the sugar. Then comes the steamed milk, adding a creamy texture that serves as the perfect canvas for the spices. Ah, the spices—cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and sometimes ginger. These spices contain compounds that trigger the warm and cozy feelings we associate with fall. They also interact with the other ingredients in a way that enhances the overall flavor, making each sip a complex but harmonious experience.
And now, for today's fun fact: When we talk about the "spice" in Pumpkin Spice Latte, it's actually a blend of several spices. There's no single "pumpkin spice." Instead, it's a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, with some variations including ginger or allspice. These spices are the same ones traditionally used in pumpkin pie, which is why the drink evokes memories of Thanksgiving dinners and family gatherings. So the next time you sip on a PSL, you'll know that you're actually enjoying a carefully crafted blend of spices that have been beloved for centuries.
