Ingredients
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 2 shots Brewed espresso
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Shredded coconut (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by brewing 2 shots of espresso using your preferred method, whether it's a coffee machine, stovetop espresso maker, or any other tool you prefer.
Step 2
In a small saucepan over medium heat, pour in the coconut milk and allow it to warm gently. Avoid boiling the coconut milk for a creamier texture.
Step 3
Once warmed, whisk in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until fully combined. Continue to whisk for about 1-2 minutes to ensure the ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 4
Pour the brewed espresso into a mug.
Step 5
Slowly pour the warm coconut milk mixture over the espresso, allowing the flavors to blend seamlessly.
Step 6
If desired, use a handheld milk frother to froth some additional coconut milk to top off your latte, creating a delightful foam layer.
Step 7
Sprinkle a teaspoon of shredded coconut over the top as a garnish, adding both texture and an extra hint of coconut flavor.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade dairy-free coconut latte!
