Serves 1

Ingredients

Espresso
1 shot
Whole Milk
1 cup
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon
Honey
1 tablespoon
Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon, plus extra for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Brew a shot of espresso using your preferred method.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent the milk from scorching.
  3. While the milk is heating, blend together the extra virgin olive oil, honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon in a blender until well combined and frothy.
  4. Pour the freshly brewed espresso into a large mug.
  5. Slowly pour the frothy olive oil mixture into the mug over the espresso, using a spoon to hold back the foam. The goal is to create a layered effect with the espresso at the bottom and the frothy mixture on top.
  6. Gently stir the latte to combine the layers just before drinking.
  7. Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra burst of flavor.
  8. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy!

Tips

  • 💡 For a vegan version, replace the whole milk with a non-dairy milk of your choice.
  • 💡 For a stronger olive oil flavor, use an olive oil with a robust flavor profile.
  • 💡 To ensure a frothy top, make sure your milk is very hot before blending with the olive oil mixture.
