Start by preparing the almond milk. Soak 1 cup of raw almonds in water overnight or for at least 8 hours. Drain and rinse the almonds.
Place the soaked almonds in a blender with 4 cups of fresh water. Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes until the mixture appears creamy.
Strain the almond mixture through a nut milk bag or a cheesecloth into a bowl or pitcher, squeezing to extract as much liquid as possible. This will give you the almond milk.
In a medium saucepan, gently heat the almond milk over low heat until warm, but not boiling.
Prepare 1 cup of hot brewed coffee according to your usual method, such as using a French press or espresso machine.
In a mug, combine the hot coffee with 1 cup of the warmed almond milk.
Add 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 0.25 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt to the coffee mixture. Stir well to combine.
Taste the latte and add more almond milk if you prefer a creamier texture.
Pour the almond milk latte into two serving mugs. Optionally, sprinkle extra ground cinnamon on top for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30-compliant almond milk latte.
