Instructions:

For the Pistachio Paste:

For the Latte:

  • 1 shot espresso (or ½ cup strong brewed Solai Coffee)
  • 1-2 tablespoons homemade pistachio paste (adjust to taste)
  • Whipped cream (optional for topping)
  • Chopped pistachios (optional, for garnish)

1. Make the Pistachio Paste:

  • Blend the pistachios in a blender or food processor until they form a fine powder.
  • Add honey (or maple syrup) and hot water, then blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

2. Brew the Coffee:

  • Prepare a shot of espresso or strong Solai Coffee. Set aside.

3. Heat and Flavor the Milk:

  • In a small saucepan, heat the milk on medium until hot but not boiling.
  • Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of the homemade pistachio paste, whisking until well combined.

4. Combine and Serve:

  • Pour the espresso or coffee into a mug.
  • Add the pistachio-flavored milk. Stir gently.
  • Optional – Top with whipped cream and sprinkle chopped pistachios for a crunchy finish.

Tips:

  • For the best results, blend the pistachios for the base and chop a few for topping.
  • Store leftover pistachio paste in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup.
  • Let the coffee cool and pour over ice for an iced version before adding the milk.
