A creamy, aromatic low-carb latte infused with golden saffron and hints of vanilla — the ultimate cozy holiday drink that’s keto-friendly and naturally sweetened.
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut milk)
- ½ cup brewed espresso or strong coffee
- 1-2 pinches saffron threads
- 1 tbsp heavy cream (optional, for extra creaminess)
- 1-2 tbsp allulose or erythritol (to taste)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of cinnamon (plus extra for garnish)
Warm the almond milk gently in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
Add the saffron threads and let them bloom for 2–3 minutes until the milk turns golden.
Stir in sweetener, vanilla, and cinnamon; whisk until dissolved.
Pour in brewed coffee and mix well.
Froth the latte using a hand frother or blender until creamy.
Pour into your favorite mug and sprinkle a little cinnamon on top. Serve warm.
