Purveyors of vino, Apothic Red, have provided all the ingredient info and know-how - and it couldn’t be easier….

You’ll need:
Apothic Red Wine Syrup:
750ml of Apothic Red
300g caster sugar

Blend per Latte:
1 tbsp pumpkin puree
1 ½ tbsp Apothic red wine syrup
1sp pumpkin spice
30ml hot espresso
250ml whole milk
1sp cinnamon sugar

Method:
In a large saucepan heat Apothic Red Wine with the caster sugar, stirring all the time, to make a syrup. Leave to cool and place in a sterilised bottle - this will keep in the fridge for ages.

To make the individual latte fill a mug with pumpkin puree, Apothic Red Wine infused syrup and pumpkin spice. Add espresso and stir together to combine.

Meanwhile, heat the milk and froth it using a milk frother - alternatively, if you have a French press, you can add the milk to this and push the plunger up and down a few times to create a fine foam.

Pour this over the syrup mixture and stir to combine, top with whipped cream then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and serve.

Et voilà! Won’t your friends be impressed if you magic up one of those when they next visit?
