This Pistachio Latte recipe is a creamy, nutty twist on the classic coffee favorite. Combining the rich flavor of pistachio butter with smooth milk and bold espresso, it’s a comforting and indulgent drink perfect for any time of day. With hints of vanilla and a touch of natural sweetness from maple syrup, this latte offers a deliciously unique coffee experience that’s easy to make at home in just minutes.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk of choice (240g)
  • 1/4 cup brewed coffee or espresso (60g)
  • 2 tbsp pistachio butter or pistachio cream (30g)
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup or sweetener of choice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the milk mixture: In a saucepan, combine the milk, pistachio butter, and maple syrup or chosen sweetener. Stir to mix thoroughly and heat over medium heat. Use a cooking thermometer if available, and heat until the mixture reaches about 150°F (65°C), just hot but not boiling.
  2. Add vanilla extract: Once heated, turn off the heat and stir in the pure vanilla extract to infuse the mixture with subtle vanilla flavor.
  3. Froth the milk: Using a whisk or milk frother, blend the warm milk mixture until small bubbles form and the milk is frothy and light.
  4. Prepare the coffee: Pour the freshly brewed espresso or strong brewed coffee into a mug as the base of your latte.
  5. Combine and serve: Slowly pour the frothed pistachio milk over the coffee, allowing the foam to settle gently on top. Garnish as desired and enjoy your pistachio latte immediately.

Notes

  • Use any milk of your choice—dairy or plant-based—for a dairy-free latte.
  • Adjust sweetness by varying the amount or type of sweetener to suit your taste.
  • If you don’t have pistachio butter, pistachio cream or a finely ground pistachio paste can be substituted.
  • For a stronger coffee flavor, use espresso instead of brewed coffee.
  • Use a milk thermometer to avoid overheating, which can affect texture and flavor.
