Pumpkin Spice Yerba Mate Latte Recipe
Servings: 1 large cup
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon Yerba Matte leaves plus ½ cup hot water
- 1 teaspoon sweetener + more to taste I used date syrup*
- 1 cup unsweetened milk of choice I used almond milk
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ginger or ½ Tablespoon freshly grated
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon cloves
Instructions
- Steep the tea in the ½ cup water along with the sweetener in a small cup or bowl. Let steep for 5 minutes.
- While the tea is steeping, heat 1 cup almond milk. Once heated, pour into a glass blender.
- Pour the steeped tea through a strainer. Add it to the glass blender along with the cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Blend.
- Pour the tea blend into a cup. Sprinkle cinnamon on top
Notes
• I used 1 teaspoon of sweetener because it allows the earthy flavor of the latte to shine through. However feel free to add sweetener to taste!
• If you like a cap of frothed milk, heat ¾ cup milk and add to the glass blender and put the remaining ¼ cup milk into a frother. Top your latte with the frothed milk.
• Spices are flexible. For example, if you like it spicier add more cloves.
