In a separate saucepan, heat the oat milk over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Use a milk frother or whisk to create foam, if desired.

4. Sweeten the tea

Divide the brewed dandelion tea between two mugs. Stir in 1 teaspoon honey per mug (or more to taste).

5. Combine latte

Pour the steamed oat milk over the tea, holding back the foam with a spoon, then top with the foam.

6. Garnish and serve

Sprinkle with ground cinnamon, if desired. Serve immediately.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

To maximize the depth of flavor, allow the dandelion root to simmer gently rather than boiling vigorously. When heating oat milk, keep the temperature moderate to prevent scorching and preserve creaminess. Frothing the milk adds a luxurious texture, but is optional depending on your preference.

Varianten und Anpassungen

You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan option. For a spiced variation, add a pinch of ground ginger or nutmeg into the latte. Experiment with different plant-based milks like almond or soy if oat milk is not available, keeping in mind that it may alter the flavor and texture.

Serviervorschläge

This latte is delightful enjoyed warm on a chilly morning or as a calming evening treat. Pair it with light snacks like almond biscotti, or enjoy solo while curled up with a good book or during a mindful pause.
