Autumn Coffee Recipes for home (That aren't Pumpkin Spiced)

The nights are drawing darker, the weather is turning colder and autumn is officially here. At Recent Beans, Autumn is our favourite time of year - Warm jackets, cold weather, leaves changing colours, halloween & bonfires (and for me, the NFL season) It's perfect!

Thanks to the 2nd wave coffee shops and their astronomical marketing budgets, the Pumpkin Spiced Latte is the belle of this ball, but there are more incredibly delicious coffee drinks that help welcome the autumn spirit. Better still, these can all be easily made at home, using freshly roasted Recent Beans coffee and not cost you £6 a cup.
