Notes

Both coconut milk and almond milk will work for the maple latte though coconut milk will be creamier. You can make it easy and use a handheld frother and whisk them right into the mug but it won’t be as frothy.

Likewise, you can heat the milk in a small pot on the stove until frothy also.

Brew your coffee slightly stronger than normal so that the maple latte retains its amazing, espresso-like flavor.

Pure maple syrup will give the best flavor to the maple latte recipe.

Store the leftover maple latte in the fridge in a mason jar. You can either drink it chilled by pouring it over ice or reheat it on the stove over low. Not too high of heat or the milk will burn.
