What is the healthiest latte?
It’s made with just a few simple ingredients, and this latte can be whipped up in just 5 minutes – perfect for those mornings when you need a quick pick-me-up. But which milk alternative is the best in coffee? There is no one-size-fits-all answer here because this really depends on your taste preference.
This dish does require the use of some unusual kitchen utensils. You’ll need a blender and a large pot, both of which you probably already have, and a fine-mesh strainer bag to drain the mixed almond pulp from the finished milk. You can buy these reusable nut milk bags online for about $7-15 each , or you can buy paint filter bags at your local hardware store for about $1 each. I’m not sure if they are “food grade” but I washed them a few times with hot soapy water before using and they were fine. Almond Breeze Barista Blend is Australia’s first almond milk made exclusively for coffee.
How to easily make an almond milk latte?
Whether you’re vegan or lactose intolerant, the restriction of full-fat dairy milk can stand in the way of the perfect cup of coffee. While regular milk steams beautifully, easily transforming to the frothy silkiness that melts into espresso like a dream, plant-based milk is a whole different story. A latte is typically made with espresso, steamed milk, and flavored syrup, making it sugar- and calorie-heavy when compared to other coffee drinks. Unsweetened black coffee is generally the healthiest option, as it contains almost no calories, unless you add calories with additives such as cream or sugar.
Hold the tip of the wand against the side of the pitcher to create a swirl in the milk. Set power to medium and heat for 15 seconds per cycle. Remove the cup every 15 seconds, swirl the liquid thoroughly, and check the temperature. The process is similar to the act of milking , but let’s not go there…after filtering all the milk, you’re left with a piece of almond pulp. I use Torani's orgeat all the time in cocktails -- good stuff. Haven't tried them in coffee or tea, which is odd because that's how they're usually used!
Additionally, almond milk is lower in calories than dairy milk, so it’s a great option if you’re watching your weight. There are a couple different ways that Ive found to work successfully every time. Once its hot, you can either use an electric frother , or you can froth almond milk in a french press. Pour the milk into a french press and pull the handle up and down vigorously until the milk begins to froth. Almond milk is now the most popular nondairy beverage in the country. This refreshing beverage is made with vanilla almond extract.
I'm a plant-based vegan, married to a meat eater, with two picky kids. I use whole food plant-based ingredients to create a delicious compromise in the kitchen. My goal is to create simple and flavorful main dishes, salads, snacks, and the occasional dessert that I feel good about feeding my family, and they delight in eating. One cup of whole milk has 150 calories, 8 grams of fat, 5 grams of saturated fat, 30 grams of cholesterol, and 11 grams of sugar. Regular milk and other dairy products are the top source of saturated fat in the American diet.
You can get quite creative with your almond milk latte recipe as easily as you can with a traditional one. Here are some of our favorite optional ingredients to give your brew an extra special touch. To make a basic almond milk latte, all you need is milk and espresso or strong coffee. Whole milk and cream contain fat, a macronutrient that provides more energy than both protein and carbohydrates. Experiment with different spices and herbs to bring out the nutty flavor of almond milk. Add it to a stir-fry for a light and creamy finish.
To add sugar/sweetener to an iced latte, however, you have two options. First, you can add the sugar to your coffee before it cools. Second, you can make liquid sugar (known as “simple sugar” in the food and beverage industry). This is a quick recipe you can make by adding a couple of teaspoons of boiling water to your desired sugar. The hot water melts the sugar/sweetener, making it easier to dissolve in a cold latte. You can also make a larger portion of liquid sugar that can be kept in the refrigerator for a week.
