1 tbsp coconut sugar
1 pinch ground cinnamon

1 pinch nutmeg

Method

Add all the ingredients to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat.

Bring the pan to a simmer and stir until the coconut sugar has dissolved and milk is infused with the other ingredients. This will take roughly 5 minutes.

Serve while still hot.

About maca powder

Naturya maca powder is made from the organic maca root that has been ground until fine.

It’s known as a superfood because it is packed full of minerals and vitamins like vitamin B2 which, along with iron, helps to support your immune system and your energy levels. Iron is also known to contribute to normal cognitive function.

For this particular maca recipe, why not use an oat-based plant milk like Minor Figures Barista Oat?

Once you’ve infused the milk, whisking the hot maca coffee with a milk frother creates the creamy, foamy top we all associate with a latte!

For a fun twist, why not try some latte art using a stencil and some extra ground maca on top of your latte?
