Tea Base
- 1 bag Cherry tea
Flavor Additions
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- a pinch Cinnamon (optional)
Milk & Sweetener
- 1 cup Milk (whole, almond, oat, or preferred variety)
- to taste Sugar or sweetener
Instructions
- Brew Cherry Tea: Boil water and steep the cherry tea bag for about 5 minutes until the tea is flavorful and aromatic.
- Add Vanilla Extract: Place the vanilla extract into your favorite mug to infuse the latte with its sweet aroma.
- Heat Milk: Warm the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it is steaming but not boiling to preserve creaminess.
- Combine Tea and Vanilla: Pour the brewed cherry tea into the mug over the vanilla extract, removing the tea bag first to avoid bitterness.
- Froth Milk: Slowly whisk the warmed milk into the tea until frothy, creating a smooth and creamy texture.
- Sweeten: Add sugar or your favorite sweetener to taste, mixing well to achieve your preferred sweetness level.

Notes
- You can use any milk variety like almond, oat, or whole milk depending on your preference.
- Adjust sweetness according to your taste or dietary needs.
- For a vegan version, use plant-based milk and a plant-based sweetener.
- Whisking the milk creates a mild froth, but you can use a milk frother if available for a richer texture.
- If fresh cinnamon is not available, ground cinnamon works well.
