Vegan Classic Maple Latte

Bold espresso meets real maple syrup and a touch of vanilla for a latte that tastes like a cozy café upgrade you can make at home. The espresso gets sweetened right in the mug, so every sip carries that warm, caramel-like maple flavor from the very first drink. Steaming and frothing the milk into a light, silky foam gives this latte that coffee-shop texture, with a pillowy top perfect for a dusting of cinnamon. It's a simple, five-ingredient ritual that comes together in minutes, no fancy equipment required beyond a whisk or frother. This one fits neatly into a plant-based morning routine and makes a comforting, café-quality drink any day of the week.

Chef's tip
Use plain, unsweetened soy milk, measured 1:1. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in sauces, custards, and baked goods. For hot or acidic drinks, a barista-style soy milk resists curdling.
2 tbsp pure maple syrup
¼ tsp vanilla extract
pinch of ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

1
Brew 2 shots of espresso directly into a large mug.
2
Stir the maple syrup and vanilla extract into the hot espresso until fully dissolved.
