How to Make a Hot Almond Milk Latte

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 ounce dark roast coffee beans
• 2 ounces filtered water
• 1 1/2 cups almond milk
• Sweetener

  optional, to taste

Instructions

• 1 If you have an espresso machine, use a light roast to brew two shots of
  espresso. If not, you can use a French press, Keurig, drip coffee maker, etc.
  The trick is to brew a strong yet small (about half a standard cup) coffee. Add
  sugar or sweetener as desired and place to the side.
• 2 The next step is to warm your milk. Almond milk and dairy milk are similar to
  work with. The easiest way to heat it is with a steaming tool. Otherwise, you
  can do so on the stove. In a small saucepan, heat about 1 ½ cups of almond milk
  on medium heat. You don’t want to bring it to a boil. Instead, whisk
  consistently in a rapid motion until the milk is hot and slightly frothy. Remove
  from heat.
• 3 Optional: Once removed from the heat, you can add a small portion of the milk to
  a separate bowl and continue to whisk to create a thicker foam. A latte should
  have one part coffee and three parts milk. Within the milk, the majority of it
  should be steamed with only a small portion on top being foam. Many people
  prefer to eliminate the frothed portion, however; especially if they are making
  their latte at home.
• 4 Add your milk to the coffee and enjoy!
