A Deliciously Sweet and Comforting Sweet Potato Latte
Today, I’m excited to share a recipe for a wonderfully simple and delicious homemade Sweet Potato Latte! This comforting drink is perfect for warming you up on a chilly day, offering a gentle sweetness and a velvety smooth texture. Skip the cafe and enjoy this rich, homemade treat!
Main Ingredients- 100g Sweet Potato (preferably a sweet variety like Korean pumpkin sweet potato)
- 1 cup (200ml) Milk
Sweeteners & Flavor Enhancers- 1 Tbsp Honey, Oligosaccharide, or Condensed Milk (adjust to your taste)
- Pinch of Cinnamon Powder (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1 Tbsp Honey, Oligosaccharide, or Condensed Milk (adjust to your taste)
- Pinch of Cinnamon Powder (optional, for extra flavor)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your sweet potato. Wash 100g of sweet potato thoroughly. You can either steam it whole (with skin on) until tender, or peel it, chop it into large pieces, and boil it in a small amount of water until soft. It’s ready when a fork easily pierces through it, usually around 20 minutes. Once cooked, carefully peel the sweet potato while it’s still warm.
Step 2
In a blender, combine the cooked and peeled sweet potato, 1 cup of fresh milk, and 1 tablespoon of your chosen sweetener (honey, oligosaccharide, or condensed milk). You can adjust the sweetness to your preference – start with 1 tablespoon and add more if needed after tasting. If you enjoy the warm spice of cinnamon, add a pinch of cinnamon powder now for an extra layer of flavor.
Step 3
Secure the lid on your blender and blend everything together until smooth and creamy, which should take about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Be careful not to over-blend, as this can create too much foam. And just like that, your delicious homemade Sweet Potato Latte is ready! You’ll notice how much richer and more satisfying it is compared to powdered versions from cafes. Pour into your favorite mug and enjoy this delightful, comforting beverage!
