Pumpkin Spice Coffee Syrup






Curious how I take my coffee? I'm an iced coffee fan, even in winter, with a splash of flavored syrup and a touch of half-and-half! My secret for week-long enjoyment is making cold-pressed coffee every Sunday. If you're wondering what cold-press coffee is, it's a simple method for creating a concentrated coffee that you can store in your fridge. All you need are ground coffee and water, and you'll find the instructions below. This spiced syrup is the perfect addition to your morning coffee, no matter how you like to drink it. It adds just the right amount of warmth to make those cool fall mornings feel cozy.

Pumpkin Spiced Iced Coffee

Ingredients
8 oz. Cold-Press Coffee
4 tsp. half and half
3 tsp. Pumpkin Spice Syrup
Ice

Directions
In your favorite glass add the ice, coffee, half and half and syrup.  Mix until combined.  Enjoy!

Cantina Laredo's Valentine's Day Menu & A Giveaway!! WINNER ANNOUNCED

Image
As a proud new member of the Nashville Food Bloggers , I was excited to be invited to a special preview of Cantina Laredo's Valentine's Day menu this past Monday. It was my first time visiting the restaurant, and I was impressed by its vibrant and sophisticated atmosphere, which I'd describe as "Modern" Mexican. Cantina Laredo offers two "Tres Course" menus, both reasonably priced at $17.99 per person. Their regular dinner menu features enticing dishes such as Enchiladas De Avocado (avocado and artichoke enchiladas with tomatillo sauce over spinach) and Enchiladas De CANGREjO (lump crab enchiladas with spicy chili de arbol cream sauce on vinaigrette-marinated vegetables). I'm already looking forward to trying the TACOS DE CARNITAS (slow-roasted pork with chipotle wine sauce) on my next visit—yum! I had the pleasure of meeting both the General Manager, Matt Langston, and the Executive Chef, Josh Santiago. Their passion for the restaurant and its o...
