Sweet Potato Miso Latte
This Latte is the ultimate cozy-meets- umami energy boost. I’ts creamy, comforting, and surprisingly nourishing, made with roasted sweet potato, white miso, almond milk, warm spices, and espresso.
Whether you sip it hot or over ice, it’s a layered, feel good treat that hits all the right notes.
Ingredients
• 1 medium sweet potato (roasted + peeled)
• 1–2 tbsp white miso
• ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 dashes cinnamon (plus more for topping)
• Pinch of sea salt
• 1 double shot (or single shot) espresso
• Frothed milk of choice
Instructions
1. Roast the sweet potato:
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Roast the sweet potato for 40–50 minutes until tender. Let cool slightly, then peel.
2. Blend the base:
In a blender, combine the sweet potato, white miso, almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sea salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Assemble the latte:
Spoon a few generous tablespoons of the sweet potato miso base into a glass or mug.
4. Add espresso:
Pour in your shot of espresso over the sweet potato mixture.
5. Top with frothy milk:
Add your choice of frothed milk.
6. Garnish:
Dust with cinnamon—or get playful with cacao or nutmeg.
7. Serve:
Stir to combine or sip layered for a full flavor experience. Enjoy hot or iced!
Sweet potato and miso might feel unexpected, but together they create a latte that’s creamy, salty-sweet, and layered in the best way.
