Can I use regular milk instead of oat milk?

Yes, you can use regular milk, but keep in mind that this will change the flavor profile and richness of your Honey Bun Latte. Oat milk provides a nice creaminess and pairs wonderfully with the honey and cinnamon in this recipe.

How can I make this latte iced?

To make an iced Honey Bun Latte, brew your espresso and let it cool. Then, pour it over ice in a glass and top with chilled oat milk that has been whisked with honey and cinnamon. Serve immediately for a refreshing drink.

What can I do with leftover espresso?

If you have leftover espresso, consider using it for another coffee drink, like an affogato or cold brew ice cubes. Alternatively, you can store it in the fridge and use it within 24 hours for another Honey Bun Latte.

Can I add a sweetener instead of honey?

Absolutely! If you prefer a different sweetener, you might try agave syrup or stevia. Keep in mind that different sweeteners come with different flavor profiles and sweetness levels, so adjust accordingly.

Are there any variations for this latte?

Yes! You can customize your Honey Bun Latte by adding flavors such as vanilla extract or cocoa powder, or trying different milk alternatives like almond or coconut milk. Feel free to get creative!
