    I have been adding the pumpkin pie spice to my coffee grounds for years now….I love the low cost and ease of doing this. As a matter of fact, I never even move the spice jar away from the coffee bar!!!

      Doesn’t it taste so amazing, Rhonda? And you’re right… it is such a thrifty little trick! 🙂

      Enjoy, Penny… it’ SO delicious!! 😉

  3. Eva Wozniak says:

    I bought the pumpkin sugarfree syrup at Marshalls and it’s good, as well. I love the cinnamon vanilla spice from Tupperware in it,too!

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      That sounds delicious!

    Made this last weekend and it was fabulous! I didn’t have pumpkin pie spice, so I made my own! Used a recipe I found online. We had some french vanilla creamer in the fridge…mmm mmm delicious!

    1. Heidi says:

      Hi Lori ~ I’m so glad you liked it! I agree ~ it’s delicious with vanilla creamer! {my favorite way to have it} 😉

  6. Regina says:

    I do instant or Kerug…any tips on how u could use the pumpkin spice?? Thanx 🙂

    1. Rebecca Ouellet says:

      I just did this in my Keurig today! I just brewed a regular cup of coffee, then added the spice after the coffee was brewed. I used about 1/2 tsp of spice and some coconut milk creamer. It was delicious!!

    2. Heidi says:

      Hi Regina ~ yes… I also do this using my reusable K-Cup holder and just add 1/8 tsp. of Pumpkin Pie Spice in with my coffee. Just play around with the proportions until you get it how you love it… it’s delish!

  7. Lynn Ross says:

    The Easy Pumpkin Spice coffee is genius. You can control how much spice you want to use and not have to worry about finding where to buy it in the grocery stores. FABULOUS!
