So the elections here in the United States are happening tomorrow. To many people’s surprise, two of the most unlikely candidates have made it to the top and have been ball punching each other daily with snarky comments and underhanded attacks.
Many people have declared that if “He Who Likes His Name Too Much” wins they will be moving to Canada.
Why not? The people are delightful and sweet. The scenery is peaceful. And well.. have you seen their Prime Minister, Justin Tredeau? He’s making many Americans swoon with thoughts of Canada.
So today, in honor of Canada we bring you my recipe the “Canadian Spice” latte. It is a little sweet, a little sassy, and a safe retreat from the elections. Enjoy!

Around this time of year as I read blogs and other social media I come across friends in the USA and Canada spicing up their latte with pumpkin spice or Canadian spice. It’s just not done here (in Australia) from what I can see.
Yeah, I’ve heard that. Poor Australians. 🙁
