Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons pistachios not salted; 23 grams, shelled
- 1/2 cup water 4 ounces, hot
- 2 Medjool dates (pitted; or use 1.5 tablespoons maple syrup)
- 1 cup coffee 8 ounces, hot brewed
Instructions
- Add the pistachios, water, and dates (or maple syrup) to a blender. Blend until very smooth, with no pieces of pistachios visible. When blending hot liquids, be sure to loosely cover the vent in the blender lid with a thin towel, to allow for steam to safely escape, without splattering your kitchen.
- Pour in the brewed coffee and blend again. Adjust any flavoring to taste, adding more maple syrup for a sweeter version, or more coffee if you'd like it less-sweet.
- If your blender didn't totally pulverize everything, pour the latte through a fine mesh sieve as you pour it into your mug, to catch any pieces that might have been missed. Serve warm right away.

Notes
- Nutrition information is for one large latte, but you can split this between two people for a lower calorie drink.
- I used pistachios that are not salted, but if that's all you can find, I imagine that a salted pistachio latte might also be delicious.
- It's normal for this drink to separate as it sits, so keep a spoon nearby and stir it as needed. For an iced drink, use cold water and coffee, and serve over ice, instead.
