Ingredients

• Tea
  • 2 tablespoons roasted dandelion root (loose or in tea bags)
  • 2 cups water
• Latte
  • 1 cup oat milk, unsweetened
  • 2 teaspoons honey (or to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Brew the Tea

In a small saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the roasted dandelion root (or tea bags), reduce heat, and simmer for 5–7 minutes to extract the flavor.

2. Strain

Strain the tea into a heatproof container, discarding the solids or removing the tea bags.

3. Heat the Oat Milk

In a separate saucepan, heat the oat milk over medium heat until steaming but not boiling. Use a milk frother or whisk to create foam, if desired.

4. Sweeten the Tea

Divide the brewed dandelion tea between two mugs. Stir in 1 teaspoon honey per mug (or more to taste).

5. Combine

Pour the steamed oat milk over the tea, holding back the foam with a spoon, then top with the foam.

6. Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle with ground cinnamon, if desired. Serve immediately.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

For the best flavor extraction, simmer the dandelion root gently without boiling vigorously. Adjust the honey sweetness to your preference and consider frothing the oat milk to create a luscious texture that enhances the latte experience.

Varianten und Anpassungen

Substitute honey with maple syrup to make this drink fully vegan. For an added warming touch, sprinkle a pinch of ground ginger or nutmeg atop your latte. You can also experiment with other plant-based milks, but oat milk’s natural creaminess is ideal.
