In the fall, Starbucks starts selling their flavored Pumpkin Spice coffee. I'm not a huge fan of flavored coffees, but I love Pumpkin Spice. I buy several bags and use them as special treats for myself. I made the 'error' last year of buying a bag of decaf and it has lingered in my freezer all year. The other day, I discovered a heavenly combination with this coffee:
brew a carafe of pumpkin spice coffee
in a cup, put a tablespoon of Giradelli double chocolate mix
pour in fresh whipping cream and mix with a fork, making the whipping cream, chocolate mix a bit frothy.
add coffee and mix
add a tad of sugar
MMMMmmm.
Perfect for a cold fall morning after a rain.
