Oat Milk Latte
An oat milk latte is a creamy, plant-based coffee drink made by combining espresso with steamed or frothed oat milk. It typically includes just two main ingredients: a shot or two of espresso and oat milk, often with optional sweeteners like vanilla syrup. This beverage originated in specialty coffee shops and has become a global staple, especially popular in vegan and dairy-free communities.
