Equipment
- Small Saucepan

Brown Sugar Miso Latte
- ½ cup (125 ml) milk of choice see notes
- 2 tbsp brown sugar miso syrup
- 2 shots espresso
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the miso and 1 tbsp hot water until a smooth paste forms. Set aside.
- To a small saucepan, add the brown sugar and ½ cup of water. Place over medium heat and stir frequently until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to a simmer.
- Once simmering, turn off the heat and whisk in the miso paste until it has dissolved. It's ok if there are a few small chunks.
- Strain into an airtight container using a fine mesh strainer. Cool completely before using.
- To make the latte, add the milk to a glass and fill with ice. Combine the brown sugar miso syrup and espresso then pour it over the milk. Stir and enjoy!
Notes
- The recipe makes between ¾ and 1 cup or about 200 ml of syrup.
- Milk: We like to use whole milk or oat milk for this recipe. If you're using a dairy-free milk, we recommend using a barista blend since it has a creamier consistency.
- Nutrition information includes oat milk.
