Salted Maple and Vanilla Latte

This is the best simple salted maple and vanilla latte recipe that you can whip up in a jiffy to enjoy with your morning devotions, quiet walk outside, or simply as an afternoon pick-me-up! I am definitely a coffee lover, but I do not have the budget nor the wish to frequent fancy coffee shops in town. This delicious latte solves my problems by being budget friendly and faster to make than a trip to town would be. 

This is super simple recipe that does not require that you have an espresso machine or any fancy equipment. I use a French press to brew my coffee, but you can use whatever is easiest for you whether that be a drip machine, pour-over, siphon, instant espresso, etc. I do use an immersion blender for this recipe, but you can also make do with a milk frother or simply use a hand mixer or whisk. Just be careful not to spray milk everywhere! You can use your milk of choice, whether that be oat milk, almond milk, whole milk, or straight heavy cream (this is always a wonderful option).
