During isolation, we’ve really started to up our at home coffee game. Turns out making your own coffee every day inspires trying tons of new recipes and flavors because, well, why not? Enter the CBD Honey Cream Latte.
Seriously, this thing is AMAZING. It might sound a little strange to use honey as the sweetener in a latte, but it adds this amazing flavor dynamic that pairs really well with the latte drinking experience.
And as a side benefit, making this (like other lattes at home) can save a lot of money when compared to cafe prices. Plus, it’ll make you feel pretty impressed with yourself. Let’s face it: there is nothing like waking up on a Saturday morning, making brunch, and cozying up with a warm latte. It gives us that restaurant vibe, without having to change out of pajamas and waiting around for 45 minutes!’
Onward to the recipe!

If you don’t have a milk steamer or an espresso maker at home, that’s totally fine. Instructions follow for milk steam substitute, and instead of espresso, use a dark drip coffee.
