Instant Vegan Latte
Description
The Instant Vegan Latte combines freshly brewed coffee with either almond or cashew butter and a pitted Medjool date, blended to smooth creaminess. The nuts add a subtle richness and thickness, while the date offers natural, gentle sweetness. Blending creates a cohesive drink textured enough to mimic a latte's creaminess without using dairy or specialized equipment.
The preparation involves blending coffee with the butters and date until smooth; a fine mesh sieve can be used if the blender leaves any date pieces, ensuring a smooth cup. This method allows a fast, plant-based alternative to traditional lattes, enjoyable any time coffee is desired.
This latte features straightforward ingredients easy to find and adjust, such as adding extra dates for sweetness. It suits those avoiding dairy but craving a creamy coffee drink loaded with natural flavors from nuts and fruit.
Ingredients
- 1 cup coffee hot brewed
- 1 teaspoon almond butter (or cashew butter)
- 1 Medjool date , pitted (or more to taste)
Instructions
- Combine the coffee, cashew butter, and date in a blender and blend until creamy. Taste and add another date, if you'd like something sweeter.
- If you use a high-speed blender, you can pour this mixture directly into your cup and serve right away. If you use a standard blender, you may want to pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to strain out any random pieces of date that the blender may have missed.
