Fall and cooler weather are quickly approaching. Since it is fall, I now drink warm beverages daily.  My favorite fall drink is Starbucks® Caffè Latte. This drink is now available in Keurig K-Cups®.

Why do I like Starbucks® Keurig K-Cups®?

First, Starbucks® Caffè Latte K-Cup® pods are delicious. Also, they are made from milk with no artificial flavors. Furthermore, they are relatively easy and simple to make. Third, I am able to buy them at my local grocery store. In addition, I love the convenience of having these K-Cups® available in my own home. Lastly, Starbucks® come in great flavors.

  • Caramel 
  • Mocha
  • Vanilla.

For a LIMITED TIME, The 2 Beloved Starbucks® Caffè Latte K-Cup® Seasonal Flavors are as follows:

  • Pumpkin Spice
  • Peppermint Mocha.

How do I make Starbucks® Caffè Latte?

I use Starbucks® Caffè Latte K-Cup® pods, simple two-step process. First, I pour the flavor packet into my mug. Next, I brew the Starbucks® Caffe Blend K-Cup® pod in my Keurig®. Last, I stir and enjoy my beverage. Plus, I always make sure to add whipped cream on top!

How do I store Starbucks® Keurig K-Cups® in the fall?

I store them in a re-purposed aluminum or tin can that is decorated as a Jack O’Lantern. This is a fun, but also seasonally appropriate way to store before using them.

    I always bring out a few fall planters for my kitchen… just nice to see the new colors. Great idea to use one to hold Kcups… I see these everywhere and they can be tricky to store!

    • Janine says

      Thanks Seana and I just love freshening up my kitchen and home space with some much needed fall colors, as well as being able to store my k-cups, as well 🙂

  4. William Holland says

    Bev merchandises grocery stores for a coffee company. We know all about K-cups….LOL If you were a neighbor we’d supply you with freebies.

    But alas, you’re not!

    Happy Friday, Janine!

  5. Christine Carter says

    Ohmygosh I LOVE that they have latte K Cups now! Or have they had them for a while? I am going to the store TODAY to buy them. Cass is really into the ‘coffee’ thing now… (wha? I know I know… ) She will love them!

    And that K cup holder is absolutely ADORABLE!!

    • Janine says

      Wow, I can’t believe Cass is old enough for coffee now and seriously time is just flying on by now! Hugs and hope she enjoys, as much as I do 🙂

    • Janine says

      Thank you so much Amber and truly love the new Starbucks® Caffé Latte K-Cup® pods. Also had so much fun creating these Jack O’Lanterns to hold my new favorite treats 🙂

  8. Leslie says

    We must be one of the last families out there that doesn’t have a Keurig. 😀 Those Jack-O-Lantern Prints are adorable, though. I can think of half a dozen other crafts for them!

    • Janine says

      Omg, you need a Keurig in your life as I still don’t know how I got along without ours. But still hope you can use my jack o’lantern printable for a craft soon 😉

  9. Aunt Gloria says

    What a good idea! I love that Jack O Lantern reincarnated from the tin can! I do not have a Keurig set up but this looks really good. Just in time for the cooler weather! Happy weekend!

  11. Aunt Gloria says

    I wrote something yesterday but I don’t see it posted. Anyway…..this is a great idea. I don’t have a Keurig set up, but maybe one day! Hope the weekend is going well. xxoo

    • Janine says

      I did see the original comment and responded. Thanks for commenting again though and wishing you a wonderful weekend, too xoxo 😉

      • Aunt Gloria says

        Oops! I do see my first comment Janine….I must have missed it …..sometimes I’m online late at night and too awake! In spite of the rain today, hope you had a good weekend. I stayed in and caught up with myself.

      • Janine says

        Aw, no worries and stayed in too organizing our clothes for the cooler weather now, too. Wishing you a great beginning of the week now 😉

  12. Cynthia says

    Hey there, sweet friend! Just wanted to stop by! Hope you’re well. Been busy with school..and a side project. Pictimilitude is going away, but no fear…will be launching a new site. 🙂
    In any case, love these photos and what fun with the Halloween theme. I can’t believe it’s that time of the year already and again. Haha.
    Sending hugs!

    • Janine says

      Hey Cyndi, so happy to hear from you today and just spent our morning switching out our summer clothes for fall and winter ones now. But still had to say hi back now. Also, please keep me posted on the new site when it launches and send me the link as I will most definitely follow you over there, too. Hugs right back at you!! <3

  18. Rea says

    That is so cool that you are able to do it on your own – both the latte and the jack o lantern can. 🙂 Almost holidays and cold weather is coming so it pays to have a handy instant latte. 🙂
