A soothing latte with roasted dandelion root, oat milk, and honey for a cozy, nourishing drink.

# What You'll Need:

→ Tea Base

01 - 2 tablespoons roasted dandelion root
02 - 2 cups water

→ Latte

03 - 1 cup unsweetened oat milk
04 - 2 teaspoons honey
05 - 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon

# Directions:

02 - Strain the brewed tea into a heatproof container, discarding solids or removing tea bags.
03 - In a separate saucepan, heat oat milk over medium heat until steaming. Use a milk frother or whisk to create foam if desired.
04 - Divide brewed dandelion tea between two mugs. Stir in 1 teaspoon honey per mug, adjusting to taste preference.
05 - Pour steamed oat milk over tea, holding back foam with a spoon, then top with foam layer.
06 - Sprinkle ground cinnamon over each mug if desired. Serve immediately.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It tastes indulgent but asks nothing of your afternoon energy levels—no caffeine jitters, just calm.
  • The combination of roasted dandelion and creamy oat milk feels like a secret discovery you'll want to share.
02 -
  • Don't skip the straining step—loose particles will make the texture gritty and take away from the experience, even if they're harmless.
  • Oat milk froths best when it's fresh, cold, and unsweetened; old or sweetened versions produce less reliable foam, which I learned the expensive way after wasting half a carton.
03 -
  • Buy dandelion root from a reputable source—quality makes a surprising difference in taste and extraction, so don't just grab the cheapest option.
  • Pre-warm your mugs with hot water before pouring; it keeps your finished drink at the perfect temperature for a slower, more intentional sip.
