Tips and tricks
- Choose Quality Ingredients: Opt for high-quality plant-based milk and freshly brewed espresso or strong coffee. The quality of your ingredients greatly influences the final taste.
- Chill Your Ingredients: Make sure your espresso or coffee is properly chilled before mixing it with the plant-based milk and ice. This ensures a refreshing and balanced temperature.
- Sweeten Thoughtfully: Experiment with various sweeteners such as agave syrup, maple syrup, or coconut sugar. Start with a small amount and adjust to your preferred level of sweetness.
- Ice Matters: Use plenty of ice cubes to keep your latte cold and refreshing. You can also freeze coffee into ice cubes to prevent dilution as they melt.
- Texture Fusion: For an extra creamy texture, consider using full-fat coconut milk or almond milk. This adds richness and depth to your latte.
- Enhance with Flavors: Add a touch of flavor with a drop of vanilla extract, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a dash of cocoa powder. These simple additions can elevate the taste.
