Instructions
Add the almond milk, coconut cream, and vanilla syrup to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat. Whisk and heat until starting to steam (do not boil).
Froth the hot milk with a milk frother or whisk for 15-20 seconds, set aside.
Brew your espresso or coffee as desired into a large coffee mug, then top with the frothed milk. Serve!
Notes
Syrup is totally optional for this recipe but does give it a nice sweetness. You can use any coffee syrup of choice! Also, here is a link to my choice of vanilla syrup.
Coconut cream gives this latte a creamier texture and helps it froth a little bit. You can always use almond milk instead for a total of 1 cup almond milk if desired.
No need to have a fancy espresso maker, this recipe works perfectly with 8 oz freshly brewed coffee if you don’t have a fancy machine.
Do not boil or simmer the milk. It should be steaming and just starting to foam around the edges of the saucepan. You risk burning your milk and giving this latte a bitter taste.
