While on the hunt for a new pumpkin-spiced iced latte to obsess about, I found this Starbucks iced pumpkin spice latte copycat recipe on Coffee at three. It looked delicious but I wanted to put my twist on it.

There’s something extra special about this time of year and that first sip of a pumpkin-spiced latte. It just seems magical, doesn’t it? It’s the start of my favorite season!
We’ve hit the in-between fall and summer stage, where it’s cool in the morning and the perfect time for that jacket or sweater you’ve been missing.
But…
You’ll soon regret it by the afternoon as summer makes its daily visit.
These still-to-warm afternoons will NOT deter me from my love of all things pumpkin spice!
I’ve waited all year!
The first of the leaves are changing color and I’m already decorating so bring on the sweaters, bonfires, and crunchy leaves!
The weather isn’t always on board with the magic of fall and that’s why this drink is exactly what you need while mother nature catches up.

Questions you may have about Starbucks Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte Copycat Recipes:
Can pumpkin spiced lattes be iced?
Absolutely!
Anything can be iced if you try hard enough, but will it taste good is another question..?
I tested and tasted this recipe with you in mind!
As we transition from summer into fall, the weather doesn’t always automatically cooperate. It can stay quite hot in the first weeks of autumn.
This I found to be a perfect solution for wanting to get in the spirit of the season but still needing a cool down in the afternoon.

The fastest way to get pumpkin spice lattes (iced or hot) every day is to keep this delicious sugar free pumpkin spice syrup on hand. Grab one for yourself today.

How much caffeine will be in this iced pumpkin spice latte?
The amount of caffeine in an iced pumpkin spice latte is the same amount of caffeine in a standard cup of coffee – 80–100 mg.
This also depends on how big your cup is and your coffee brand.
For my version of this recipe, I cold brewed the Starbucks Pike Place Roast averaging 155 milligrams of caffeine per 8-ounce serving.
The beauty of this recipe is you can alter your caffeine intake based on your preferences!

Is the iced pumpkin spice latte sweet?
That depends, how sweet do you like it?
You can adjust this in the same way you make your morning coffee. If you put three sugars in or none at all, tweak it to your liking!
I found this recipe to be just the right amount of sweetness and pumpkin spice. It was a well-balanced flavor.
If you need more sweetness you can add a little more of the homemade pumpkin spice syrup or this store-bought Skinny Syrup (They have a pumpkin spice flavor!) If you are already sweet enough you can take it back a few notches and add a little less.

Starbucks Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte Copycat Recipe
We are taking this perfect fall drink, the pumpkin spice latte and we’re pouring over ice!
This recipe was inspired by a recipe I found on Coffee at three but I changed it up to suit what kitchen tools I have and how I like my coffee.
Made with simple ingredients, strong brewed coffee, and real pumpkin puree (inside my homemade pumpkin syrup) You may want to write this Starbucks copycat recipe down!
Feel free to do the same!
Here’s how I made this delicious drink:
Ingredients
- 1 cup of cold brew coffee
- 3 tablespoons of homemade pumpkin syrup
- ¾ of a cup of 2% milk
- 1 cup of ice cubes
For the topping:
- Whipped cream
- A dash of vanilla extract
- A sprinkle of pumpkin spice

Directions:
- Make your cold brew coffee. I used Starbucks Pike Place Roast ground coffee in this Cold Brew Pitcher from amazon the night before I made this recipe.
- Whisk together whipped cream and vanilla extract for the topping.
- Put cold brew coffee, pumpkin syrup, and milk into a mason jar and shake to incorporate.
- Pour ice cubes into your tall glass and pour the coffee mixture over top.
- Top with the whipped topping and a sprinkle of the pumpkin spice.


How you can make it your own:
Use a different brewing method:
A French press would be a great brewing method for this recipe.
If you have an espresso machine that would work perfectly too! Put a shot of espresso in place of cold brew coffee. If you really want to get wild you can add two shots of espresso!
Change ingredients to suit your dietary needs:
Instead of 2% milk, some great options are oat milk, non dairy milk, coconut milk, and soy milk.
The great thing about making this homemade version of this Starbucks drink instead of buying it from a coffee shop is you know exactly what’s in it! You can make it how you want it and you don’t have to trust another person to take a possible dietary restrictions seriously.
Have fun with it and use what you have on hand:
If you choose to make your pumpkin syrup from scratch and instead of pure pumpkin puree you have pumpkin pie filling? Toss that in there!
If you don’t necessarily enjoy an iced latte, make it warm and see what happens!
The possibilities are endless! Go ahead and caffeinate in the way that works for you.
