Ever since I discovered how to make a Pumpkin Spice Latte from the beautiful and talented Kathy Patalsky of Healthy.Happy.Life my husband and I have been hooked! With no pumpkin in our house and a serious hankering for a latte a new creation was born. A Cinnamon Vanilla Latte inspired by one of our favorite guilty pleasures we enjoy but this one is guilt-free, sugar-free and absolutely savory!
Ingredients:
Directions:
Note: I have a Blendtec that can handle hot liquids. It could be blended cool and then heated. I do it in this order for foam optimization. A handheld blender could also be used!
I hope you and yours enjoy this as much as we do!
With love, health and good vibrations!

- 1/4 cup cashews
- 2 cups filtered water
- 2 cups coffee (hot)
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 20 drops stevia extract
Directions:
- Blend the cashews and water in a blender for 60 seconds to create cashew milk. Scoop the foam off and set foam aside. (You could skip this step and use 2 cups of non-dairy milk, I like to make it fresh so I can have fresh foam to create designs on top!)
- Pour the milk through a strainer and into a pot. Heat the cashew milk on the stove over low to med-low heat and whisk. Heat throughout until hot.
- Place 1 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp cinnamon in your blender. Add the hot milk and hot coffee in your blender and blend for 60 seconds.
- You will have a frothy beautiful latte! Pour into two cups, use the foam from the cashew milk to draw a heart or anything else your heart desires!! ENJOY!
