When you’re in need of a little pick-me-up and but don’t want to go to a cafe, I highly recommend making this homemade iced salted honey latte recipe. AND, this homemade latte doesn’t require a fancy espresso machine! All you need is a jar (or container with a lid) and a microwave!

You’re going to fall in love with this recipe so much!

The best recipe for a salted honey latteAfter making a latte at home without an espresso machine, I honestly asked myself why I hadn’t done it sooner!

Pouring milk into a glass jarWhile you may be used to hearing ‘salted caramel’ as a flavor combination – which, I admit is an awesome (I mean, I have shared a recipe for the best salted caramel chocolate chip cookies) – have you ever tried salted honey?

Years ago I had an iced salted honey latte at a cafe, and I could not stop thinking about it.

Ingredients for homemade salted honey latte

Every time I went back, I would ask for the drink, but they changed their specials and were never able to replicate it.  So I knew I needed to!

Making a latte at home with no espresso machineAs I’ve been bombarded with so much work lately, I’ve felt like a busy bee, and as I was dreaming up sitting in a cafe relaxing, I knew it was a salted honey latte I’d want to be drinking.

Milk froth in a glass jar

Do you prefer iced or hot drinks? For me, it’s iced all the way! Even in the dead of winter, I love a nice iced beverage!

Pinch of salt in salted honey latteOk, now let’s talk about how this is made at home.

  • All you do is put milk in a jar with a secure lid, shake it vigorously, then remove the cap and microwave it.

Then, voila, you have milk foam for your drink! I had come across this article on how to make a latte at home by The Kitchn and was curious if it worked. Sure enough, worked like a charm!

It’s true — you don’t need a fancy foamer to make frothy milk at home! It’s actually really easy to make it in the microwave. All you do is shake nonfat or 2% milk in a jam jar until it’s foamy, take off the lid, and microwave it for a few seconds. You get spoonfuls of foam, plus warm milk to pour in your latte.

I like to buy pre-made iced coffee (cold brew or espresso work great), but you could brew coffee for this recipe too.

Homemade latte in a glassNext time you need a little pick-me-up, I’d highly recommend this homemade iced salted honey latte – it’s the perfect combination of salty and subtle sweetness!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup coffee or espresso, at room temperate (if you want a warm latte, you can leave your coffee warm and omit the ice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar this just gives it a hint of sweetness, add more or less depending on preference
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon flaked sea salt this is for topping, add more or less depending on preference, I like the distinct sea salt flavor

    Making a latte at home with no espresso machine
  • Fill two large glasses (or mason jars) with ice. Pour coffee evenly between the glasses. Sprinkle a little sugar in each glass.
  • Using a spoon, hold back the foam and pour a little milk into each glass. Then take spoonfuls of the foam to add on top of the latte. Drizzle honey over each latte and top with flaked sea salt. Stir to combine and enjoy!

    My mother will be gone to Heaven 26 years ago tomorrow. She drank her coffee black, but would occasionally add cream and sugar if she was having guests for dinner. I still remember the old electric percolator she would bring out for company, and how delicious the coffee smelled as it was brewing.

    Well, my Mother never drank coffee due to a heart condition. But, the Momma of my daughter loves cold brew, especially when it’s been aged in bourbon barrels. Hawthorne is our local go to for it, but Cafe de Arts has a cagnac barrel aged cold brew as well that she likes.

    I always remember my mom drinking a cup of coffee in the morning. She added creamer, the color was always like that of a nice caramel. These days its all about convenience and she opts for a cup made with the Keurig, normally French Vanilla is her flavor of choice! My dad used the machine for hot chocolate in the winter months, we buy him a box of the cups for Christmas every year.
