Ingredients

  • 1 bag of green tea
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 2 teaspoons honey (for sweetness)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Fill a mug two-thirds full with boiling water. Add the green tea bag and steep for 5 minutes to extract the flavor.
  2. Step 2: Remove the tea bag and pour the hot tea, almond milk, honey, ground ginger, and ground cinnamon into a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is creamy and frothy.
  3. Step 3: Pour the blended green tea latte back into your mug and enjoy it warm.

Tips & Variations

  • For a richer flavor, try using oat milk or coconut milk instead of almond milk.
  • Add a pinch of vanilla extract for an extra layer of sweetness and aroma.
  • If you prefer a stronger tea taste, steep the tea bag for an additional 2 minutes before blending.
  • To make it vegan, ensure the honey is replaced with maple syrup or agave nectar.

Storage

The green tea latte is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, stirring occasionally to maintain creaminess.

How to Serve

Two white ceramic mugs are filled to the top with light creamy beige frothy liquid. The foam on top is airy with small bubbles and is sprinkled with a light dusting of brown cinnamon powder. The mugs have gentle floral patterns embossed on the outside and are placed on a white marbled texture surface. The front mug is fully visible while the second mug is slightly blurred in the background. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
