1/4cupraw or dry roasted, unsalted cashews
2Medjool dates(or maple syrup to taste)
1/2teaspoonsalted butter(or margarine)
1/4teaspoonvanilla extract
1/4teaspooncinnamon,ground
Pinch ofsalt
Instructions
Prepare your coffee using your prefered method. I used a french press.
Add all the ingredients, including the prepared coffee to a high-speed blender. Blend for 30 seconds or until smooth and frothy.
Notes
If using a good high-speed blender, you shouldn't have any pieces of cashews or dates in your drink. If you have a weaker blender, you may need to strain the drink using a fine mesh sieve.For a vegan option, use vegan butter. I use this vegan margarine.Feel free to omit the butter for a simple cinnamon latte.
