Autumn Spice Caramel Latte!

Autumn is here! Happy HAPPY day!! 🙂 Crisp mornings, glorious fall leaves crunching under foot, and wonderfully hot Lattes. During a delightful week in Colorado, I found a fantastic little coffee shop with an unusual latte. They ventured away from the typical “Pumpkin Spice” that tends to be the craze during this time of year and created a cup of “Autumn Spice” goodness! So, being me, when I returned home I recreated the cup of goodness. 🙂 Give it a try and let me know how you like it!! <3
