# 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, optional

# Steps:

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes indulgent and creamy without any dairy guilt, just oat milk doing its quietly magical thing.
  • You get that cozy latte experience without caffeine anxiety keeping you wired past dinner.
  • The whole thing comes together faster than waiting in a coffee shop line, and you'll feel healthier for it.
02 -
  • Don't skip the straining step or you'll end up with gritty bits in your teeth—learned that the hard way and it completely changes the experience from luxurious to slightly annoying.
  • Oat milk froths best when it's cold to start, so don't pre-warm it if you want that foam; the temperature change is what creates the magic.
03 -
  • The temperature of the dandelion tea matters more than you'd think—if it cools even slightly before you add the milk, the whole thing loses that silky, integrated feeling, so work quickly once it's steeped.
  • A simple handheld milk frother (they're cheap and last forever) elevates this from nice to genuinely restaurant-quality in texture and feel.
