Ingredients
Strawberry Latte Ingredients
- 1 cup brewed coffee or espresso
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
- 2 tablespoons sugar or sweetener (optional)
- Ice (for iced version)
- Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare Coffee: Brew 1 cup of your favorite coffee or espresso and allow it to cool slightly to avoid melting the ice too quickly if preparing iced.
- Puree Strawberries: Place fresh strawberries in a blender and puree until smooth, ensuring a fresh and vibrant strawberry flavor.
- Combine Ingredients: In a glass, mix the strawberry puree with the brewed coffee thoroughly to blend the flavors well.
- Add Milk: Pour 1/2 cup of milk (dairy or non-dairy) into the coffee and strawberry mixture and stir well to create a creamy consistency.
- Add Ice (Optional): For the iced version, fill a glass with ice cubes before pouring the coffee mixture over it to chill the drink.
- Sweeten to Taste: Add 2 tablespoons of sugar or sweetener, or adjust according to your preference, and stir until fully dissolved.
- Top with Whipped Cream (Optional): Finish your latte by adding a dollop of whipped cream on top for extra indulgence, and enjoy!
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor in the puree.
- Adjust the sweetness based on your taste or dietary needs.
- Non-dairy milk options like almond, oat, or soy milk work well and can add unique flavors.
- For a stronger coffee flavor, use espresso instead of brewed coffee.
- The latte can be served hot by skipping the ice and enjoying immediately after combining ingredients.
