Maple Pumpkin Shaken Espresso ☕🍁✨

If you’re ready to level up your fall coffee game, this Maple Pumpkin Shaken Espresso might just become your new go-to. It’s cozy, creamy, and perfectly balanced — like your favorite pumpkin spice latte, but with a bold espresso twist and that maple sweetness that feels like pure autumn in a glass.

This drink is everything I want on a crisp morning — smooth espresso shaken with pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and a pinch of sea salt to bring out all those warm, cozy flavors. Then it’s poured over ice, topped with creamy homemade cashew milk, and finished with a splash of my homemade pumpkin creamer for that dreamy, coffee-shop texture (without leaving your kitchen).

The Recipe

You’ll Need:
– 2 shots espresso
– 1–2 tbsp pumpkin puree
– Pinch of sea salt
– ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
– Ice
– Milk of choice (I love my homemade cashew milk)
– Splash of homemade pumpkin creamer for extra creaminess – recipe coming soon!

How To Make It:

In a cocktail shaker or jar (aka SKULL jar) with a lid, combine the espresso, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and sea salt.
Add a handful of ice and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds — it’ll get frothy and perfectly chilled.
Pour over fresh ice in the glass.
Top with your milk of choice and a splash of pumpkin creamer.
Give it a quick stir, sip, and enjoy your cozy café moment at home.

Why You’ll Love It:

– The perfect mix of creamy, spicy, and strong.
– Naturally sweetened and made with real pumpkin.
– Easy to make in 5 minutes with no fancy equipment.
– A cozy fall coffee shop vibe — without the $8 price tag.

This Maple Pumpkin Shaken Espresso is the kind of drink that makes fall mornings feel extra. It’s rich, cozy, and just the right amount of indulgent — basically, the fall energy we’re all craving.
