Summary
Imagine...The middle of October is here, you're sitting outside enjoying the warm sun. Leaves on the trees are a brilliant red, orange and gold. It comes to you right then...orange and gold? Pumpkins and caramel!
By garnishing the glasses with caramel syrup, you give my Autumn Pumpkin-Java Milkshake blond highlights. I also add a touch more brown sugar to the coffee mixture.
If you wish to turn this into a adult beverage, add Baily's Caramel, Godiva Caramel Liqueur or Smirnoff Caramel Vodka. For the pint sized ghoul's and goblin's, use decaf coffee and no spirits.
