Step 1

To make the mix: Combine all ingredients in a jar. Cover and shake until evenly combined.

Step 2

To make a hot latte: Steam the milk until warm and frothy using a frother. Or heat the milk in a saucepan over medium heat until nearly simmering, and whisk briefly until frothy.

Step 3

Add 1 tablespoon of the dry pink latte mix plus 1 teaspoon maple syrup to a heatproof mug. Pour the steamed milk (minus the foam) into the mug and stir until combined. Add the foam on top and give it a brief stir.

Step 4

Give the latte a taste and add extra sweetener, if needed.

Step 5

Serve immediately and enjoy!

Step 6

To make an iced latte: Heat 1/3 cup of the oat milk (or alternately you can just use hot water) until nearly simmering. In a heatproof glass or measuring cup, whisk together the hot milk, 1 tablespoon of the dry latte mix and 1 teaspoon maple syrup until combined.

Step 7

Fill a large glass with ice. Pour in the warm latte mixture. Then pour in the remaining cold milk, and stir briefly with a straw until combined.

Step 8

Give the iced latte a taste and add extra sweetener, if needed.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef’s notes

You must start with a hot liquid. Especially when making iced pink lattes, it’s essential to first dissolve the dry mix in a bit of hot milk or water before adding in the cold milk and ice.

Use whatever type of milk frother/steamer that you prefer. We’re big fans of this Aeroccino frother and use it every day in our house for lattes. But you can also use a handheld frother or a hand blender to froth the milk, or just whisk it briefly by hand until frothed.

Avoid stains. Beet juice is water soluble and should not stain any of your mugs or classes. But if a drop lands on your clothing, be sure to stain-treat it immediately to avoid any permanent damage.
