A comforting and naturally sweetened Honey Oat Milk Latte made with strong black tea, creamy steamed oat milk, and a touch of honey syrup. This dairy-free latte is perfect for a cozy morning or afternoon pick-me-up.

Ingredients

Scale

Tea

  • 2 black tea bags (e.g., Tazo Awake blend)
  • 8 ounces boiling water

Milk

  • 4 ounces oat milk

Sweetener

  • 1–2 tablespoons honey simple syrup

Optional Toppings

  • Cinnamon or brown sugar, for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Steep the Tea: Place 2 black tea bags in a cup and pour 8 ounces of boiling water over them. Allow the tea to steep for 4-5 minutes to develop a strong, rich flavor.
  2. Steam and Froth the Oat Milk: While the tea steeps, steam and froth 4 ounces of oat milk. Use a Nespresso frother or gently heat and froth on the stove with a handheld frother to create creamy microfoam.
  3. Prepare the Mug: Add 1-2 tablespoons of honey simple syrup into a 12-16 ounce mug to sweeten the drink.
  4. Combine Tea and Syrup: Once steeped, remove the tea bags and pour the hot tea into the mug containing the honey syrup, stirring to blend.
  5. Add Frothed Milk: Pour the steamed oat milk into the tea mixture, holding back the foam with a spoon, then scoop the milk foam on top for a layered latte effect.
  6. Add Finishing Touch: Sprinkle a light dusting of cinnamon or brown sugar on top of the milk froth to enhance aroma and flavor, if desired.

Notes

  • Use strong black tea for a rich flavor that complements the oat milk and honey.
  • Adjust the amount of honey syrup to taste depending on your sweetness preference.
  • Steaming oat milk too hot can cause it to lose sweetness; aim for about 140°F (60°C).
  • This recipe is naturally dairy-free and vegan if using vegan honey alternatives.
  • For a chilled version, cool the tea and blend with frothed oat milk over ice.
