Coconut Nutmeg Latte Twist
A twist on the classic café au lait using reduced coconut milk and infused with cardamom and nutmeg. Slightly less sugar balances the drink. Espresso shots are shorter, resembling ristretto. Froth the coconut milk with an immersion blender or manual frother. Sprinkle fresh nutmeg and a pinch of ground cardamom over the foam. Creamy, aromatic, dairy-free, and gluten-free. Ready in about 15 minutes for six cups. Pairs well with spiced pecan scones but try ginger snaps or almond biscotti for contrast.
