Today, we're diving headfirst into the delicious and surprisingly wallet-friendly world of DIY lattes. Yes, you read that right! Ditch the pricey café visits and become your home barista.
Together, we’ll explore the creamy, dreamy landscape of Vanilla Matcha Lattes, Earl Grey Lattes, the famous London Fog Tea Latte, and the intriguing Dirty Matcha Latte.
1. Vanilla Matcha Latte
Let's kick things off with a classic—Vanilla Matcha Latte. It’s a harmonious blend of the earthy matcha (hello, antioxidants!) and sweet vanilla - a drink that's equally delicious hot or iced.
To whip this up, you simply need matcha powder, hot water, vanilla extract, and your choice of milk (great opportunity to use that almond milk you bought on sale last week!).
2. Earl Grey Latte
Next in line is our trusty friend, the Earl Grey Latte, often known as the London Fog. With its bold, bergamot-infused Earl Grey tea base and the velvety finish of frothed milk, it’s a cup of creamy decadence that tastes like a splurge without breaking your piggy bank.
Pro tip: add a dash of lavender for extra flavor!
3. Matcha Tea Latte Recipe
Ready for versatility? Our Matcha Tea Latte recipe lets you customize a cup that fits your unique tastebuds. Start with matcha, hot water, and a whisk. Then - ready for it - tweak it! Go creamy with frothed milk, sweeten with agave nectar or spiced with a sprinkle of cinnamon.
4. London Fog Tea Latte
London calling, but this time with a delightful twist! Our London Fog Tea Latte is like a cozy blanket in a cup on a rainy day. Earl Grey, a hint of vanilla, some sugar, and your choice of frothy milk create this cup of pure joy.
5. Dirty Matcha Latte
Last but certainly not least, meet the tea-coffee fusion sensation, the Dirty Matcha Latte. Half a shot of espresso "dirties" this matcha latte, offering a delightful caffeine kick.
It's basically like your morning espresso ran into your calming matcha tea latte and they decided to become the best of friends. The result? A veritable burst of energy without the espresso price tag.
There you have it, fellow bargain-loving bev heads! Five flavor-packed, DIY lattes to upgrade your at-home coffee shop while keeping your budget in check.
