A Delicious and Healthy Honey Oatmilk Latte Recipe: Starbucks Inspired

Starbucks lovers, rejoice! I have a delicious and healthy honey oatmilk latte recipe for you that will help you save money and enjoy a delicious drink at home.

This latte is perfect for those chilly winter mornings or afternoons and is dairy free and gluten free! Not to mention, it’s incredibly delicious and will leave you feeling satisfied.

The best part is that it’s easy to make and only requires a few simple ingredients.

Let’s get started!

Ingredients Needed to Make a Honey Oatmilk Latte:

• 1-2 tablespoons of honey. Use more if you want it sweeter or less if not. I suggest starting with 1 tablespoon and adjusting it to your liking from there.

• 3/4 cup of oatmilk. I prefer the Oatly Barista Edition oatmilk, but you are making this for yourself, so use the oatmilk you like best.

• 1-2 shots of espresso or 1/2 cup of strongly brewed coffee. This all depends on how coffee forward you want your drink to be. Experiment until you find your perfect ratio.
• Tiny pinch of salt
• Cinnamon, for garnish.

Let me say that this recipe is not set in stone. You are making this for yourself. You can adjust the honey and oatmilk ratio, or any part of it, to your liking.

Some people might like it sweeter, while others might prefer it to be less sweet.

It’s all up to you and your taste buds!

Now that we have our ingredients, let’s get started on making this delicious latte.

Step by Step Instructions to make a Honey Oatmilk Latte:

1. Start by brewing your espresso. If you don’t have an espresso machine, a Moka Pot or an Aeropress will come close.
2. Combine your honey, oatmilk and pinch of salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
3. Once it reaches a simmer, remove it from the heat. Add your honey and oatmilk mixture to a blender and carefully blend on high for 30 seconds or until foamy. Another option is to pour the oatmillk, honey and salt into a glass jar. Microwave for about a minute, until very hot. Put a cap on the jar and wrap with a towel, because the jar will be hot. Shake until foamy.
4. Pour your honey and oatmilk mixture into a mug, leaving some room at the top. Add in your espresso shots or coffee.
5. Top it off with a sprinkle of cinnamon and enjoy!

Optional Add-ins, Tips, and Alternatives

• If you want a little extra sweetness, add a splash of vanilla extract.
• Not a fan of honey? You can use maple syrup instead.
• You could also try this recipe with almond milk or soy milk. I haven’t tried it myself, but I’m sure it would be just as delicious!
• You can easily turn this into an iced version by simply using cold brew concentrate, instead of espresso and pouring all of the ingredients over ice. A pro tip would be to use coffee ice cubes. They’re really simple to make. If you want to know how to make them, read about it here.
• This latte is delicious as is, but feel free to get creative and add in any other flavors or toppings you like. Some ideas include: chocolate shavings or a dash of nutmeg.
