- Almond milk won't foam, what do I do?
- Due to low protein content, regular almond milk foams poorly. Use 'Barista' style almond milk which has stabilizers for foaming.
- Milk curdled in coffee?
- Coffee acidity and heat can cause this. Try letting the coffee cool slightly before adding milk.
Cinnamon Almond Latte
Dairy-free coffee isn't a compromise, it's an opportunity to explore new flavors. The natural sweetness and nutty aroma of almond milk pair fantastically with roasted coffee notes. Cinnamon adds that spicy extra that makes this more than just a café au lait.
