Today I am sharing with you one of my favorite coffee, only on the days I want a sweet treat. This lavender latte recipe is one of the yummiest and most calming and delicious coffee ever. My 2 other favorite coffees are an oat milk shaken espresso and a traditional cafe de la olla. I’ll share the recipes later on.
I recently this past June I ordered a new coffee machine. I ordered the 4 in one cuisinart Barista. It is the BEST coffee machine I’ve ever had. I love that it has the option for a pot of coffee, keurig cups and espresso. All the options in 1 machine. I used to only have a regular cup of coffee but now with this new machine, i get to try all the options. It’s also compatible with nespresso pods! If you have a coffee brewer- this will work fine. If you don’t, you can put your coffee grinds in a pot with water and it does the same thing.
Lavender Latte Recipe
For this recipe, I used agave as a sweetener because I am trying to use more natural sugars. You can use stevia, regular sugar, whatever sugar you want to use- it is totally up to you. I really like it with agave though, it’s not overpowering and you can taste the lavender.
I love to have this drink in the mornings after my workout, especially if I’ve mediated. Lavender is known to have calming and stress-relieving properties. I sometimes feel like it “smoothes” out the caffeine. It also makes me feel a little bougie when I drink it. If you want to feel a little bit bougie-r, sprinkle some lavender on top!
This is truly the easiest lavender latte to make. If you are interested in my coffee mug, I will leave it linked here. There are many other drink recipes on my website and you can find them here, even some adult beverages! You can catch me creating this drink on Instagram!
