FAQs
Got questions about making the perfect Almond Latte? Here are some quick answers to help you brew, customize, and enjoy this delicious treat at home or on the go
What’s the difference between almond extract and almond syrup?
Almond extract is highly concentrated and provides a strong nutty aroma, while toasted almond syrup adds both flavour and sweetness. Using both gives the latte depth and balance
Can I use almond milk in a Roasted Almond Latte?
Absolutely! Almond milk complements the flavour profile perfectly. You can also use oat, soy, or coconut milk depending on your taste or dietary preferences
Is toasted almond syrup the same as regular almond syrup?
Not quite. Toasted almond syrup has a deeper, roasted flavour compared to regular almond syrup. It adds a richer, slightly caramelised taste to the latte
How can I make a vegan roasted almond latte?
Use plant-based milk like almond or oat, and ensure your toasted almond syrup and sweeteners are vegan-friendly. Skip the whipped cream or use a dairy-free alternative
