“The Formula”
Makes two chalices
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice mix (recipe below)
- 1 ½ cups milk (regular or alternative)
- ¼ cup pumpkin puree (fresh or canned)
- 2 Tablespoons + 1 Teaspoon maple syrup
- Pinch black pepper
- Pinch salt
- ½ cup strong coffee or 2 shots espresso
- ½ teaspoon coconut oil
Incantation:
Warm all spell ingredients, except coffee and coconut oil, in a small cauldron on the stovetop until simmering. Meanwhile make your witches brew; coffee or espresso are both wicked!
Pour liquids into a blender and mix for 30 seconds. Careful blending hot potions lest they burn you! And don’t toil or trouble if you are without a blender, just whisk in your coffee until it gets frothee.
Pour your potion into two chalices and top with whipped cream and/or a pinch of cinnamon. Cackle proudly at your magical elixir, cuddle up with your familiar, and enjoy!
