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!
-
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.
