How to Make It: Quick & Easy

Step 1: Blend or Whisk

• Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan or high-speed blender.

Step 2: Warm & Infuse

Step 3: Taste & Adjust

• Sample and tweak sweetness or spice. Add more syrup or spices to suit your taste.

Step 4: Store

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is oat milk creamy enough for coffee creamers?

Yes—unsweetened oat milk has a naturally creamy mouthfeel and blends well into coffee. For fuller texture, blend a portion of coconut cream.

Stored in the fridge, it stays fresh for 5 to 7 days. Use clean utensils and seal jar tightly.

Can I freeze it?

Yes, freeze in ice cube trays—one cube (1–2 tbsp) per coffee portion. Thaw in fridge or warm coffee.

Is it rich enough for latte lovers?

If you enjoy thicker lattes, consider blending with coconut cream or using a higher-fat oat milk base.
