Pumpkin spice not your thing? Maybe you agree with Culture Redeemed that Pumpkin Spice might be the Mark of the Beast. Honestly, that’s okay too. We don’t mind a little shade when we have a PSL to keep us warm.

Thanks for sharing this easy way to make Pumpkin Spice. I love that this version has cloves in it, unlike the blend we used to buy at Walmart. It really does add an addition warm note that makes things like the PSL taste different than a pumpkin pie.
So glad you’re enjoying it! I agree – there is a difference b/w the pumpkin spice blend and the pumpkin pie blend.
