Lavender Oat Milk Latte (Printable format)

Creamy oat milk, espresso, and lavender combine for a calming floral drink with gentle sweetness.

# List of ingredients:

→ Lavender Syrup

01 - 1/4 cup water
02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender buds

→ Latte

04 - 2 ounces espresso or 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
05 - 2 cups oat milk
06 - 2–3 tablespoons lavender syrup
07 - Ice (optional, for iced beverage)

# How to make it:

01 - Combine water, granulated sugar, and dried culinary lavender buds in a small saucepan. Heat gently over medium, stirring until sugar dissolves, then maintain a low simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat, allowing mixture to steep for 5 minutes. Strain to remove lavender buds and cool syrup.
02 - Brew two shots espresso or prepare 1/2 cup of strong coffee using an espresso machine or coffee maker.
03 - Warm oat milk in a saucepan or use a milk frother to achieve a hot, foamy texture. For iced preparation, skip heating and use chilled oat milk.
04 - Pour lavender syrup into a mug or glass. Add brewed espresso or coffee, then top with oat milk. Stir gently to blend aromatics and flavors.
05 - If preparing iced, add ice to the glass before pouring espresso and oat milk, ensuring a chilled beverage.
06 - Sprinkle dried lavender buds or add a twist of lemon zest for a decorative finish.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The lavender syrup steals the show by turning your ordinary coffee break into something extraordinary.
  • Oat milk makes it rich and velvety, yet still light and completely dairy-free.
02 -
  • Don&pos;t let the lavender steep too long—overdoing it can make the syrup taste bitter and overpowering.
  • Switching to barista-style oat milk changed the foam game entirely—regular oat milk just doesn&pos;t froth as well.
03 -
  • Let the syrup cool fully before mixing to keep your latte silky and fragrant.
  • A dash of oat milk foam on top is the secret to the café look, even if you&pos;re in pajamas.
