Ingredients

  • 1 vanilla rooibos tea bag
  • 6 oz boiling water
  • 6 oz unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 1 pitted Medjool date
  • 1 teaspoon coconut butter
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon + extra for dusting
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • freshly grated nutmeg, to taste

Instructions

  • In your serving mug, brew the rooibos tea in the boiling water for at least 3 minutes.
  • In a small saucepan over medium, bring the plant milk, date, coconut butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to a light boil. Carefully transfer the milk mixture to your blender and blitz on high for 20 seconds or so.
  • Pour the frothy warm milk mixture over the tea. Sprinkle a little cinnamon and nutmeg over the top. You can leave the teabag in or take it out. Rooibos only gets better with longer steeping time.

Equipment

  • Blender

Recipe Notes

  • Rooibos tea is naturally sweet, so I personally find that it doesn't need any additional sweetener. You can always adjust this to taste!
This vanilla rooibos tea latte is vegan, lightly spiced with cinnamon & nutmeg, caffeine-free, easy to make, and incredibly cozy.
