Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1 cup
Espresso
1 shot (about 1 ounce)

Instructions

  1. Brew a shot of espresso and set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling. If using a dairy alternative, be cautious not to let it boil.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in the lavender syrup, vanilla extract, and honey until the mixture is well combined and the honey is dissolved.
  4. Using a milk frother or a whisk, froth the milk until it reaches a creamy and foamy consistency.

  7. Serve hot and enjoy the soothing and aromatic flavors of the Lake Louise Lavender Latte!

Tips

  • 💡 For a stronger lavender flavor, steep a few extra dried lavender buds in the milk while heating.
  • 💡 You can substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan version.
  • 💡 Try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg on top for an extra layer of flavor.
