Fall Blonde Pumpkin Java Milkshake
Imagine...The middle of October is here, you're sitting outside enjoying the warm sun. Leaves on the trees are a brilliant red, orange and gold. It comes to you right then...orange and gold? Pumpkins and caramel! By garnishing the glasses with caramel syrup, you give my Autumn Pumpkin-Java Milkshake blond highlights. I also add a touch more brown sugar to the coffee mixture. If you wish to turn this into a adult beverage, add Baily's Caramel, Godiva Caramel Liqueur or Smirnoff Caramel Vodka. For the pint sized ghoul's and goblin's, use decaf coffee and no spirits. Ingredients
- 1/4 Cup Strong Coffee, Warm
- 1 1/2 Tsp. Packed Dark Brown Sugar
- 1/2 Cup Milk
- 1/4 Cup Plus 1 Tbsp. Fresh Cooked Pumpkin, Cooled & Drained

- Fresh Whipped Cream, Whole Coffee Beans, Caramel Syrup, Festive Colored Sprinkles, Candy Corn and/or Dash or Two of Pumpkin Spice.
Directions
