Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 shots (about 2 ounces) freshly brewed espresso
- 8 ounces milk
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.25 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 pinch (optional for garnish) ground cinnamon
Instructions
Prepare 2 shots of espresso using an espresso machine or a stovetop espresso maker.
While the espresso is brewing, heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat or use a milk steamer until it reaches a comfortable sipping temperature, around 150°F (65°C). Be careful not to boil the milk.
In a mug, add 2 tablespoons of honey and 0.25 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
Pour the freshly brewed espresso into the mug with the honey mixture and stir well until the honey is fully dissolved.
Gently pour the steamed milk into the mug, holding back the foam with a spoon. Allow a bit of foam to float on top if you like.
If using, garnish the honey latte with a pinch of ground cinnamon for added warmth and aroma.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious homemade Honey Latte.
