Raw Milk Pumpkin Latte

You first need to make some pumpkin butter:

4 cups cooked pumpkin  (or 2 cans organic pumpkin)
How to cook a pumpkin
3 Cinnamon sticks
6 Whole Cloves
2 Tbs Pumpkin Spice
3/4 cups Pure Apple Cider (use local cider whenever possible avoiding apples from out of the US)

Bring to a boil and allow all flavors to blend together as you stir. You can put this in a jar for your next recipe. For this treat we'll take 4 Tablespoons out to use in our latte and put the rest away in the refrigerator. Leave the cinnamon sticks in whole to continue releasing flavor.

Take some wonderful farm fresh raw milk and remove just enough cream (1 and a half cups) to make your whip cream for the top of your drink. Shake the rest of the cream into your milk before measuring out so you get the full rich flavor this drink is meant to offer.

Put your cream along with 4 tsp of organic cane evaporated sugar into your mixer and mix up into whip cream.

Meanwhile, take the 3 cups raw milk and heat it up on the stove making sure to add:

4 TBS of your pumpkin butter
3 tsp of pure vanilla extract
4 tsp of organic cane evaporated sugar
Bring to desired temp to drink.. not too hot.

Before you pour the latte mixture into your cup add 1/2 cup of very strong coffee. Then pour into your cup (this makes three Latte's) add a large serving of your fresh made whip cream to top it. Sprinkle a pinch of pumpkin spice on the top add a cinnamon stick and serve!
