Try
this copycat recipe for Starbucks’ Caramel Apple Spice (proceed with yummy sounds
and warm fuzzy feelings). This signature fall drink, according to my sister who you may
remember from a previous BOAB post, tastes just like “liquid
waffles.” I have adapted this recipe from Budget Savvy Diva and computed the prices of each ingredient à la Budget
Bytes. (See a theme here with the topics and titles of the blogs I
read?) Also, my favorite part of this post is that all of my ingredients came
from Aldi!

Combine 1/2 cup Baker’s Corner brown sugar [$0.14], 1/2 cup
water [free], and 1 teaspoon Stonemill
Essentials cinnamon [$0.05] in a small pot. Stir, simmer, and reduce in
