Essential Ingredients for Your Maple Vanilla Almond Milk Latte

Here’s what you’ll need to create this comforting drink:

• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk. This forms the creamy base of our latte.
• 1-2 tablespoons pure maple syrup. We love the rich, earthy sweetness it brings. Adjust this amount to your personal taste – start with one tablespoon and add more if you like it sweeter.
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. This adds a wonderful fragrant depth that complements the maple beautifully.
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional). For a touch of warming spice.
• Pinch of ground nutmeg (optional). Just a tiny bit adds a lovely warmth.

Ingredient Notes and Substitutions

When making your maple vanilla almond milk latte, choosing the right ingredients makes all the difference. We recommend unsweetened almond milk because it lets the maple and vanilla flavors be the stars. However, feel free to use other plant-based milks like oat milk or soy milk if that’s what you have on hand. For the maple syrup, pure maple syrup is best for that authentic flavor. If you don’t have it, a good quality brown sugar syrup could work in a pinch, though the taste will be a bit different.
