Cinnamon Butterbeer Latte
A healthy(ish) latte inspired by Harry Potter. This butterbeer latte is made from coffee, cashews, dates, vanilla, cinnamon and a touch of butter. All the ingredients are blended together to make a frothy, comforting drink.
Servings 2
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups prepared coffee
- 1/4 cup raw or dry roasted, unsalted cashews
- 2 Medjool dates (or maple syrup to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon salted butter (or margarine)
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
- Pinch of salt
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.
