Chocolate Date Latte Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup non-dairy milk
- 2 tbsp cacao powder
- 2 dates, pitted
- ½ tsp cinnamon or 1-2 cinnamon sticks
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: Add non-dairy milk, cacao powder, pitted dates, cinnamon (powder or sticks), and vanilla to a pot.
- Simmer mixture: Bring the pot to a low boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer gently for 5 minutes to infuse the flavors.
- Remove cinnamon sticks: If using cinnamon sticks, take them out carefully before blending.
- Blend until smooth: Transfer the mixture to a blender, secure the lid tightly, and blend until completely smooth and creamy without steam escaping.
- Serve and enjoy: Drink the latte as is, pour over ice for a cold treat, or add over coffee for a rich chocolatey twist.
Notes
- Use Medjool dates for natural sweetness and a soft texture.
- Non-dairy milk such as almond, oat, or soy works best for creaminess.
- If you prefer less cinnamon intensity, use the powder instead of sticks.
- Blend carefully and ensure the blender is sealed to avoid steam burns.
- Add sweetener like maple syrup or agave only if extra sweetness is desired.
