This honey lavender oat milk latte is delightfully sweet and floral. Homemade honey lavender simple syrup is added to espresso and frothed milk for a botanical twist on a classic latte. Enjoy it hot or iced.
In a small sauce pan combine the honey, water and dried lavender. Heat over medium heat until reaching a simmer, stirring occasionally. Once honey fully dissolves, remove from heat and let sit for 20-30 minutes to allow the lavender to seep. Strain the syrup using a fine mesh strainer into a sealed container.
Make the latte
Froth or steam milk to desired consistency.
Pour 1-2 ounces of honey lavender syrup into a mug depending on desired strength of syrup and sweetener. Add espresso.
Top with frothed or steamed milk.
For the iced version, add ice before the last step.
Notes
To froth milk, use a milk, frother or heat milk in a small saucepan and whisk until frothy.
