With extra time at home I’ve been having a lot of fun in the kitchen trying new things – it’s helping me cope during this uneasy time we are all going through. I’ve been playing around with different latte recipes & I wanted to share our 3 favorites with you since a handful of you expressed interest in me sharing more coffee recipes with you 🙂 It kind off feels like we have our own little coffee shop at home by adding pantry staple ingredients to our coffee.
This is a new latte recipe I’ve been playing around with for the past week & a half. We are HOOKED! It feels fancy & it’s the perfect little treat we need in the afternoon. I hope you make it! If you do, tag me!!

Linked below are the products we use for our lattes
Expresso machine our most treasured kitchen investment piece.
We had this mocha pot for expresso before we invested in a machine & you can use this milk frother.
Vanilla bean paste found on amazon OR you can use PURE vanilla extract. Make sure it’s pure and not imitation.
Oatly oat milk. THE BEST dairy free milk & oat milk. Hands down! And it froths wonderfully. We get ours at Whole Foods or Target. My mom said she bought some at Big Y too!
Cheers everyone! I hope you enjoy <3 we plan to have ours outside in the backyard with the sunshine on our faces.
