Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons Wattleseed powder
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 0.5 cup Milk (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Sweetener (sugar, honey, or maple syrup, optional)
Instructions
Boil water in a kettle or saucepan until it reaches a rolling boil.
Add 2 teaspoons of wattleseed powder into a small French press, tea infuser, or directly into a heat-safe mug.
Pour 1 cup of boiling water over the wattleseed powder.
Allow the wattleseed to steep for 4-5 minutes to release its deep, nutty flavor.
If using a French press or tea infuser, strain the liquid into a mug. If brewed directly in a mug, allow the powder to settle at the bottom before drinking, or strain using a fine sieve.
Optional: Add 0.5 cups of warm, frothed, or cold milk to make a wattleseed latte. You can also use dairy-free alternatives like almond, soy, or oat milk.
Optional: Sweeten the coffee with 1 teaspoon of your preferred sweetener, adjusting to taste.
Stir gently and enjoy your wattleseed coffee warm or over ice for a refreshing variation.
