Description
A homemade iced pistachio latte made with real raw pistachios, milk, and cold brew coffee. This recipe offers a rich, nutty flavor and vibrant green color without artificial syrups, ready in just 5 minutes of active time.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup strong coffee or espresso, cooled
- 1/2 cup raw unsalted pistachios
- 1 cup whole milk or oat milk
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Crushed pistachios for garnish
Instructions
- Brew strong coffee and let it cool completely in the refrigerator.
- Add raw unsalted pistachios, milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to a blender.
- Blend on high speed for 30-45 seconds until the mixture is smooth and pale green.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve if a smoother texture is desired.
- Fill a tall glass with ice cubes.
- Pour the blended pistachio milk over the ice.
- Slowly pour the cold coffee over the milk to create layers.
- Garnish with crushed pistachios and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure coffee is completely cold to prevent melting the ice. For a frothy top, shake the blended milk in a jar before pouring. If using a weak blender, strain the mixture to remove nut grit. Store blended pistachio milk in the fridge for up to 2 days, but make fresh for best texture.
