When I drink this beautiful latte, I do it slowly to savor and enjoy. This Golden Latte is luxurious because it's rich and creamy, especially with unsweetened soymilk or homemade unsweetened Almond Milk.
So which milk should you use? Indeed, if you have a nut allergy, go with the soymilk. Or, if you have a soy allergy, go with almond milk. But if allergens are not a concern, go with whatever you have on hand or are curious to try. Both kinds of milk are delicious in this latte.
What you need to make this delicious golden latte:
- Unsweetened soymilk (or unsweetened Almond Milk)
