Copycat Krispy Kreme Pumpkin Spice Latte (Hot & Iced)

ByZoe

Spiced, cozy, and stronger than you’d expect.

The Krispy Kreme PSL is less pumpkin pie and more spiced coffee. Stronger and more bitter than Starbucks’ version, but still creamy. This recipe gives you both versions — hot for cozy mornings, iced for a sharper sip.

Ingredients (makes 2 smalls)

  • 2 cups milk (dairy or oat)
  • ½ cup strong brewed coffee or 2 shots espresso
  • 3 tbsp pumpkin purée
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Whipped cream for topping

For iced version:

  • 1 cup ice

Instructions

Hot PSL:

  1. Heat milk, pumpkin, sugar, spice, vanilla until steaming.
  2. Froth until foamy. Pour over coffee.
  3. Top with whipped cream + spice.

Iced PSL:

  1. Blend milk, pumpkin, sugar, spice, vanilla, and coffee until smooth.
  2. Pour over ice, top with cream + spice.

Velvet Fork Twist: Add a pinch of cayenne into the spice — it leaves a soft heat at the end, like a secret note under the pumpkin.
