πŸ›’ Ingredients

  • βœ“ 1 cup strong brewed espresso or strong coffee, cooled slightly
  • βœ“ 0.5 cup lite coconut milk (5-7% fat)
  • βœ“ 0.75 cup plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or 2%)
  • βœ“ 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • βœ“ 2 tbsp honey
  • βœ“ 1 tbsp allulose or erythritol
  • βœ“ 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • βœ“ 6-8 ice cubes

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ Instructions

1. Prepare Pandan Syrup: Combine pandan leaves and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until the liquid turns pale green and fragrant. Strain through a fine sieve, pressing gently on leaves. Discard solids. Stir in honey and salt while still warm. Cool completely (about 15 minutes). This syrup keeps refrigerated for up to 5 days.
2. Brew Coffee: Brew 1 cup of strong espresso or concentrated coffee using your preferred method. Allow to cool to room temperature, about 5 minutes.
3. Combine Dairy Base: In a blender, add Greek yogurt, lite coconut milk, and almond milk. Add honey and allulose. Blend on high for 30-40 seconds until smooth and creamy. The mixture should be completely lump-free.

4. Add Coffee: Pour the cooled brewed coffee into the blender with the yogurt mixture. Add vanilla extract. Blend on medium speed for 20-30 seconds until well combined and frothy on top.
5. Prepare Serving Glasses: Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes (3-4 per glass). Pour 2 tablespoons of pandan syrup into each glass, swirling to coat the ice.
6. Pour and Layer: Carefully pour the coffee-yogurt mixture over the pandan syrup and ice, filling each glass to about three-quarters full. Stir well to distribute the pandan flavour throughout.
7. Garnish and Serve: Top each latte with an extra splash of lite coconut milk (1 tbsp) poured slowly to create a layered effect. Garnish with a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes or a cinnamon stick if desired. Serve immediately with a wide straw.
