For those of you looking for a healthier alternative to one of the most well-known autumn drinks, this recipe is a dairy free version of the Starbucks classic. The ingredients aren’t hard to find, and besides the frother (which seems optional, anyway), the equipment shouldn’t be hard to find either.

I don’t know about you, but kettle corn always reminds me of pumpkin patches and fall festivals. This recipe will help you bring those pumpkin patches and festivals straight to your kitchen for less money than those festival vendors. The author of this recipe also provides some tips on how to keep the sugar from burning, just in case.
Happy autumn and happy cooking, everyone!
